I need to figure out what the deal is with this 11” 9mm barrel. The rifling seems to be blown out about 3-4” in front of the chamber. Enough that a jag or brush just slide right through that area without resistance. There’s another ring of sorts about 3/4” from the muzzle as well.
Looking at the throat with my old Mark I eyeball it looks dull and the rifling is pretty weak there. I wouldn’t be surprised if it had a lot of erosion but I’ve never seen a barrel blow out the rifling further down. Any ideas or someone who could take their borescope to this would be appreciated.
