About that suppressed bolt action 9mm
Garrett comments:
Hey guys – that’s me shooting. Work was done by Mike Klos of American Manufacturing. Stock is original, refinished. We talked about shortening the breech end of the barrel to re-chamber in 9×19 and re-setting the sights. In the end we decided it would be cleaner and easier to just buy a new barrel blank and chamber it in 9×19.
The original mags don’t like to feed the shorter ammo unless I download to 3 or so. I’ve got some 1911 9mm mags on order. I plan to cut a notch for the mag catch and use these. They should work better, as they were designed for the shorter round. I could always load some extra long ammo, but the whole point of rechambering it to a more common round was to not have to use special ammo.
