Wow, interesting find, JD!  It would be worth it if you could make a spring-guide on it!  Tempted to buy just to find out.    If it would work for that, you could also make tophats as well as trigger and hammer spring guides for 17xx/22xx pistols, etc.  Even short little muzzle brakes.  Delrin rings for the Significant Other.  The list could be endless!

Does anyone have one of these?

I don't know if I will ever see the one I ordered on Tuesday. I checked on my order and it says it's on back order. I went back to the web site and the item is no longer available. When a saw it for $73 I thought it was a mistake so I called customer service to ask about it and they told me that is the Internet price. I'm almost sure I saw it for$299 before. I will keep my fingers crossed and post if I get one.

I just checked my order status it's still on back order not canceled. It was on the web site until this morning.
