I read a thread that was closed to further discussion regarding this conversion. I thought I would take a look at it
The 1903 I have is in sad shape. The pistol cost me a couple hindred 15 years ago. I picked up a 1908 barrel and it fits well in the beat up slide. I stripped bullet from case dropped the case into the chamber to check the primer strike and .it struck dead center. When I ejected it it worked though it was a bit weak. May need a different ejector. I don’t have a 1908 magazine but I will soon. The 32 magazine is really tight so mag well will probably need to b tuned. I have another 32 top end that is in great shape. That I won’t touch. It fits considerably tighter on the frame. I will update at later date.
