I spoke to my Smith today. Hes always pleasant and willing to talk about the project; but I wonder how often I should call him? I dont want to be a pest, but I dont want to loose touch either and have him do something I dont want because I wasnt clear in my initial discussion.

As for updates, hes making extractors for the inserts. Thats WAS one of my original concerns with the MACE inserts. They are cut round with no access for even a thumb nail to remove the shells. I suppose thats why they are so affordable initially. In conversations with MACE they suggested that a small dowel could be used on the shorter inserts to remove cases. In any event my Smith was not going to let me HOPE that the fired shells would fall out. He polished the chambers and is fitting extractors to the inserts that work with the original gun.

Unfortunetly as expected the initial regulation had rounds crossing at 10 yards! So its gonna take some regulating. So far theres no signs of any pressure problems. My Smith doesnt see anything to be concerned about. He polished the pins but has decided to delay any taper and bushing unless an issue arises.
