I have bought 2 barrels from Fusion and the only fitting required was stoning a couple thousands off the back of the barrel hood. Excellent barrels.

Didn’t know much about Fusion parts till recently. Got one of their grip safeties and it was made of billet with an undersized pin hole for a perfect fit after fitting. Very nice quality parts. High recommend.

Clear as mud. LOL!!!! A lot to digest, for sure.

We will be making a more in-depth fitting series. We will have videos on the actual step-by-step process of fitting a barrel coming in the near future.

I have a question. Does the 45 have feeding issues with ramped barrels with the first round out of the magazine. Specifically nose dive jams.

[@fusionfirearms]

This video may give you a place to start. While in the video, it is not a ramped barrel, it still applies. We will also have more videos on this coming out soon.
