    Isn't SWENSON Midway's house brand? They are probably farmed out to the best price. What are you replacing with the Swenson barrel?

      Bubbadized barrel in a 1960's era Colt 1911a1, that used a Counter bore for reliving the entire chamber mouth.

        looks like bubba tried to tighten up the barrel fit on the hood,

        that's a bullseye trick, but usually done much more professionally than that
