Yes, same construction as the normal SL6262 I believe. John Lofton uses them on his 62H

Does anyone know if the Conn .562 - .580 dual-bore slide is special-order option from Conn-Selmer or is there a tech making these in their own shop?

It was the standard option with 62HCL and is a custom order now I think.
