Put the 45 back together this evening and was relieved that it all worked fine, tried it at half power first and then dared myself with full power.

Has it transformed it from how it was before? Hmm, the jury is still out on this pending a proper session at the range. It doesn't feel or sound any different, maybe with being such an older model it was well settled in anyway.

It did give me a chance to give the inside a clean and lube; it's nice to get it back together and punching holes in things! Time will tell, but it might seem to have a bit more poke to it, pushing a flat head pellet through a steel can.

I will certainly have fun testing it out in the coming days.
