Bar-Sto barrel

[sworks]

I inadvertently ordered a 5" Colt Goverment semi-drop in barrel ( should be here later today ) for my SA. I know that if this was an oversized match barrel it has to be fitted anyway, but being that it is "semi-drop in" should it have the same chance of dropping in the SA as it would in a Colt?

I used a semi-drop in BarSto barrel in one of my 1911's. The only thing I had to do to it to make it fit and function was to lightly polish the outside of the barrel bushing. I did end up having the chamber finish reamed since it came from BarSto with a minimum allowable diameter and my lead reloads would dirty up the chamber just enough to cause feed jams.
