Gee Colonel 2 or 3 hundred, that thing is new in box!! Went to the range Friday and then on Monday cost me 600 rounds for 2 days, oh did I mention I like shooting my 1911. Now trying to do Bullseye with it but those little targets are giving me one heck of a challenge plus old eyes. What you could do is the drop test in the barrel and see if the hood is a lot higher that the brass if it is stone it down a little. Carry -on
