After the Christmas shipping angst in the news, I suppose I should be happy it made it at all…

These are chamber checkers from Evolution Gun Works. They are blocks of high grade aluminum with holes drilled and trimmed with actual chamber reamers. A loaded cartridge that drops in and fits flush should chamber.

The smaller block has one each 9MM, 38 Special, 40 S&W and 45 ACP. The larger one is for checking a whole box of 40 S&W.

The work I did yesterday would not really have gained much with these, except it might have been easier to check all 50 in a box instead of spot checking 10% of them. What this thing will prevent is another future mass recrimping 🙂

Interestingly enough, Evolution Gun Works’ website is down as I write this… The 50 block is available in several common sizes and runs $99 each. The smaller one was $20.
