Coinneach, there are usually three things that cause a slide not to go into battery and you've covered two completely. The third, barrel fit, you touched on but I think you'll find that this is where the problem lies. Coat the complete locking area of the barrel with dykem blue, assemble and cycle the slide a couple of times. This will show you where the lugs need attention. Also check your to see that your barrel hood is fit correctly. George
