Very nice, Cap'n...but all it means is that the chamber shoulder to hood face length is in-spec. Dominic's barrel will look just like that and go to battery on a .920 NO GO in several different slides that I've got here...which means that the gun is unserviceable until the excessive headspace condition is corrected.
By insisting that your pictures are proof of the correct method for checking headspace is leading the readers to believe that a pistol is good to go when it's entirely possible that a dangerous headspace condition can exist.
Standing offer...Anybody who wants to come and see it, let me know and we'll arrange a visit.
Dave...Carry on!
