Hi,
Ive got a S&W M-19 with a 6" barrel, I dont really like the 6" barrel or the partrige style front sight.
A local "gunsmith" has a M-19 4" barrel with a ramp front sight.
He says he can just swap barrels.
What about cylinder gap? Did S&W keep close enough tolarences that barrels should just swap out without any other fiddleing?
Can the cylinder be shimmed back and forth?
Thanks,
John
