Haven't opened yet, Made in China on the exterior box. I was hoping Hornady could sacrifice some margin to just make everything they put their name on in the U.S.A.

interestingly I have a 20" gunner (.750 journal) and been working through incomplete cycling with 62g ammo going to the 430-500 angle, this I interpreted as UNDER gassed. Mike reported this on his 16" as OVER gas. but when I measured my port hole diameter I am well under the 0.093" spec, only getting a 5/64 bit into the hole (0.0781") vs a 3/32 bit which could be over (or at) spec at 0.0937". Apparently there are 6 ANSI drill sizes between the two bits, (#42 to 47) so some proper pin gauges are in order. I've always thought OVER gas ejected fwd, not back.

Presuming these barrels are all supposed to be spec, but it would be nice if the port hole diameters where included on the product specs and that ranges of these gas port sizes were offered by barrel manufactures.

love the soft leather feel and tucks in nice and tight, only thing I don't like is the length is too short for the G43/Poly80SS frame. I get about 3/16 to 1/4in of my slide extending out the bottom and this is just enough rub me wrong and irritate the skin/wear through underwear and to not feel so good. I had to make a custom wrap with some scrap leather to cover it.
