Gimme the Dillo dust....

Excellent build and write up.

You could get them to ship to your FFL in the US then export on your DSP83 with your other parts.

Great post - nice build!

Nicely done

Much trouble getting a barrel with no gas hole?

[Mattnall]

I see you checking headspace, but not chamber cutting.
Was this already done?

Yes, much trouble. The majority of US barrel makers I contacted weren't interested in taking one off the line before it was ported even though it meant less work for them. Krieger were one of the very few I found who were happy to do this. I did try UK makers eg. Border, but they said they only supply blanks. I needed a drop in barrel ready to go.
