I recently bought a 5c collet chuck for my lathe. I cut a 45 degree crown on a 1911 barrel using the chuck and collet. Is this ok or not. I did not indicate the bore because my indicator is broke and I'm waiting for the new one to arrive. Just wondering if anyone else uses this method for 1911 work?
 
Why did you need to crown a 1911 barrel? Was there something wrong with the original crown?
