Hi all,
I have a GP100 match champ with some extra "kitchen table" gunsmithing (spring, extra shims, polishing).
I recently hit 2k rounds thru the gun and it is running smoothly. (Maybe closer to 2400)
The most I've shot it between cleanings was about 375-400 rds... but i had to run a brush through the chambers since brass was sticking and not inserting easily.
When shooting a lot of 38 spl, ive noticed that the front of chamber, at the leading edge of throat (gap between a shorter 38 spl and a 357 mag) gets really mucky from my plated 125 gr reloads.
Overall, it's been a great gun and is shaping up to be an heirloom piece. I just wanted to share that it is running great and I'm diggin it!!
