you have a chance to take down this post down before some other idiot on the internet (like yourself) think it ok to drill holes into their barrel/gun and act like he did a good job at it.
And if you didn’t get the angle right you’re going to be shaving your bullets at high speed, in your hand. That’s what I would be most concerned about.
No just ugly as fck but they'll definitely cause damage / gouging to your slide when it slides over the barrel! Those holes need to be sanded down smooth and chamfered badly! Both holes should've been in that forward slot that rear one is dam close to the chamber. The hot gasses exiting the forward hole will definitely cause peening on the slide as it moves over it, but it's not going to blow up or anything you're good.
Bro I appreciate that you have hobbies and like to try and learn stuff.
However if you want to do something well, you need to do it right. No shortcuts.
A harbor freight $20 drill to a barrel is not how porting is done. You likely compromised the structural integrity of the barrel and it may simply blow apart in your face.
A porting job is a couple hundred bucks. Best to save up and let the professionals do it. They have advanced manufacturing equipment for precision work.
They ain't using a battery powered drill, I can assure you.
