    The .32 S&W long is gruntier than .32 ACP, and cheaper.

    Nice work!!!

    The .32 ACP bullet is 7.94mm, so expectedly good for worn .303 barrels as .303 bullets are 7.9mm.

    How now did you attach the rail for the red dot? I suppose if you welded in the adapter then no worries about weakening the surrounding SG barrel chamber, or is it safe to drill and tap a couple of threads atop the chamber?

    I made up a short rail and screwed it to the shotgun barrel, quite safe, don't forget that the 32 acp section was a liner that slid in. Really quite safe in most applications as long as you use short screws and don't drill through into the chamber, I also always use a smear of epoxy un the underside when mounting a rail.
