The 5" Government barrel was just received - it was nicely machined with no tool marks and it was polished.
The chamber was correct for 9mm and after slight adjustment to the hood the barrel popped in and out of battery with the bushing installed.
Applied a #3 barrel link and a barrel link pin and removed the slightest amount from the bottom lugs - mainly to clear the step.
Like all high quality semi-fit barrels some material was "shoe shined" off the top of the chamber area and the top surface of the hood using strips of medium grit sandpaper- applied lapping compound and worked the barrel and slide back and forth and got a great fit.
Bottom lugs well cut and smooth finish - very slight removal of metal, mostly polishing.
A slight amount of lapping compound on the front of the barrel to allow the barrel to tilt in and out of battery while maintaining a good fit.
For the price, given the quality, these barrels are a steal.
