I also have a pre B, I would shoot it more but the sights are pretty poor.

New barrel was fitted:



Cuts had to be made in the new barrel to allow the metal to clear the slide:






The pistol seems to be pretty accurate - would have been better if I could see my front sight in the gloom of the range but ok. Shoots a little high so I had to compensate slightly once I saw that. I'll also work down the rear pad of the barrel and see if I can get the rear-end to lift up a little deeper into the slide's locking-lugs - that should bring POI down a touch.

100 rounds fired, 10 yards - 1 FTRB but the bigger issue is the thumb-safety engaging between almost every shot. It does feel rough so I'll tear it down and see what's going on.

I also have a "original" 75, came in a foam box with a sleeve holding it together.
I forget the name of the importer, but it is mint condition except for the white on the sights
being yellow. Came with two mags. It shoots well, I like the current rubber grips vs the original.
Have fun with yours.
