Not unless you have the slide for each. They are different. 0 -
The ace pistols are very confusing The Original Ace did not have a floating chamber it had a very light recoil spring two piece fiering pin and the firing pin retainer had a roller to let the slide cock the hammer Then came a SERVICE MODEL and these had a Floating chamber to enhance the recoil for training . the first extractor was Milled Then later these became stamped.Parts. Seen me a personal email by double clicking on my user name and I will send you some pictures when I get home after work.
EDIT Back at you 260 thanks . Pictures sent did you get them [?] I have a number of both ace and later service model ace parts what do you need . I even have a number of original ACE top half complete. I can put up for auction.0 -

Pictures sent second time if you don't get them it may be your internet provider. Blocking me or putting my message and pictures in spam folder. 0 -
I more then likely have what you need but unless you can send me good pictures or post them here or we can figure out why my pictures don't show up on your end we are at stalemate. we don't know which style barrel or other parts you need .I did a "CC" of my message and pictures To a friend he got both with no trouble on his end so the trouble seems to be on your end of receiving emails . Sorry 0 -

Link to the barrel in question and we can tell you which barrel is being offered. Most likely, it is a Service Model Ace barrel with the floating chamber, because there are more of those barrels. To help identifying which is which, the Ace barrel is only 4.75-inches long, whereas the Service Model Ace barrel is 5-inches long.
(Typo on Ace barrel length corrected. Sorry for the error.)0 -
