.460 Rowland off-season? - 04/14/2019 2:14 PM
Im running a Springfield TRP Operator fit with a .460 Rowland kit for my back-country backup. However, I am going to be spending several months back east this year, most of it in Kentucky. I actually want to keep carrying the weapon for my EDC (I know, it's really big for most folks, but it works for me) but I don't want to be loaded with bear medicine in town. The set-up will shoot both .45 acp and .45 Super as it is right now, but the spring is too strong to cycle reliable with lighter .45 acp rounds. What I want to do is get a regular GI guide rod and standard spring for regular carry, but keep the .460 bbl and comp on the gun. Then just switch the spring, guide rod and ammo when headed back out west. Am I missing something? is this viable?
The question is not about the length or weight of the gun, or the comfort of carrying it, ease of concealing it and how it compares to what you prefer to carry. I have a mechanical question, but I'm not without experience. Thanks.
