ASM cylinders swapping them . . OK ? problems ?

[Wolfgang]

Hi there Remington lovers, . . got a question.  I have an ASM '58 that came to me as part of a deal, and which I kept as an extra ( it was cheap ) though I shoot Piettas.   I has a  VERY beaten up cylinder ( which functions Ok ) though the rest of the pistol looks decent ( 80 % or so ) .  I'm offered a cylinder on another forum and wonder if these swap Ok from one pistol to another as the Piettas do or if there are problems.  Thanks in advance for any input.   

ps.  My pistol's proof marks make it manufactured in 1990.  The cylinder offered is said to have been with a EMF pistol ( that the offerer no longer has ) from '95.  I didn't know that EMF had been selling the ASM pistols, but '95 was before I was involved in cowboy / old west / civilwar type pistols.

I've yet to have a problem in swapping cylinders between these '63 N.M.A.'s manufacturers.

From the same manufacturer you "should" have no problems.........there is always "tolerance stacking" that could bite you on the butt

I say go for it!

Hi pards, . . . thanks for the input.  I've posted on the other wire that I'll take it.   It'll be nice to have a good looking cylinder in it instead of the beat up on that came with it, and always good to have at least 2 cylinders for any '58.  Even if it is an extra.  Good shootin', . . .
