My G41 W,
Got a tip from a collector at the SOS show this year, in lieu of a high price for an original barrel
band or the purchase of a repro, ( $ 140.00), buy a repro G43 nosecap, cut the cap to
create the barrel band and reblue or refinish the band, the collector I talked to indicates
the completed "band" fits, better than having the band spring flailing about in the
wide open spaces, any comments? Flareman
