Sorry, I wasn't referring to anyone in particular, John,
certainly not you because you had already stated your case.

Earlier the idea was inferred that the different lengths of
link are produced to adjust the barrel lift into lockup.
I realize that without a deeper understanding of how the
pistol works this does seem simple and logical, and of
course that is why it has become so common.<G>

When a would be 1911 gunsmith finally gets around to building
guns instead of assembling parts they realize that a barrel
fitted with precision tools is really the heart of the 1911,
and should be appreciated for the wonderful design that john
Browning gave us.<G>
