I think these will help. Sorry, Curtis. I just couldn't get down to take a lot myself. Then again, you may have been getting a well-used gun had that been the case.

very nice! Dave fit one of those KKM barrels in my 9mm commander - I like it a lot.

If those are the 1/32" twist KKM barrels they do indeed SHOOT! Lots of racegunners using those barrels.

KKM barrels do, indeed, shoot very well in 9mm. They are not the 1/32", which do shoot well, but a twist rate made for Dave by Kevin McIntyre (owner of KKM Precision). The barrels were originally made specifically for Dave's Berettas, but now Kevin does them for him as 1911 barrels. Curtis happens to be one of the lucky few who has a 9mm 1911 that Dave built, as I know first hand that they are just silly accurate, low in recoil, and function very well. Dave is one of the few guys I know who LIKES building 9mm 1911s.

Nice gun, Curtis.
