I plan to change the barrel on my 1322 for a longer one and replace the front sight-tube end/ barrel band with an aluminium two piece type. Where the barrel passes through the barrel band, should this be a snug fit, or is it better to free float the barrel?
Thanks for your help and advice. This forum is fantastic.

Do you favor a set screw?

Get rid of that plastic (stinky stuff) barrel band and get a metal one, that along with a steel breech will make everything solid and give you a solid pivot pin.
If you already have a steel breech you can make do with the plastic one just make it as snug as you can.
There a lot of posts on here about this, and lots of videos on Utube. on 1377 and 1322 and 2289 mods
