Oh sure, let the draft horses have all the fancy new tools. My old rasp is probably jealous hearing about the "Hoof Boss" while it's over here struggling like a butter knife on a steak. Guess I'll be in the barn all day now, feeling personally attacked by this post.

Good call on the lapping compound. Did the same thing on an old Springfield frame that was just a bit too tight. Found that a little bit of Flitz polish on the rails after the 600 grit really made it shine. That last bit of drag is always the toughest part to work out.

My buddy had that happen at his Walmart last month. He went for chips and they'd moved the whole snack aisle to the back wall overnight. Took him 20 minutes to find the pretzels.
