    Machining marks look cleaner than mine. I absolutely would, and do, shoot mine without hesitation.

    Sorry they were rude to you on the phone. I have not had any interaction with their customer service. Upon receipt, I didn't think twice about the machining marks, fit it, and have been shooting it very happily since.

    Please, please, please, don't tell me you shot that offhand. My best offhand is 94 with irons, and trust me it wasn't a Glock 9mm.

    In other words, NICE GROUP!

    Id shoot it and wouldnt trust it until it proved reliable.

    I find it odd your first post is a complaint.

    To answer your original question- yes, as long as it functioned I’d clean up the burrs and “trust my life “ with it.

    The answer to the question of- “is this remotely professional and acceptable coming from an old line, top tier barrel maker” is HELL NO.
    BarSto used to be the gold standard. I’ve used a number of them over the years with total satisfaction.
    Shame they’d come to this.

    Best of luck with your claim.

    This is a funny one. That is...

    one post OP.
    one example of a barrel.
    one half of the story.

    I are suspicious.

    Mirrors my experience with S&W.
    There are usually good reasons why some guys refuse to buy from certain companies.

    The guns I have to protect my life all have factory barrels.

    The same thread was locked on the Glock Talk forum for the same reason.
