My Garand barrel is really worn at muzzle. And from what I’ve read a very common milsurp problem due to soldier’s constant cleaning to please drill sergeants—maybe.
Common enough to make a muzzle bore gage to use in evaluating barrels serviceability.
Question: If I was to cut muzzle back to front of gas chamber lock nut to be able to get back to better rifling, would there still be sufficient length from gas point to muzzle the function action? I’ve never seen this topic discussed.
Yes I know barrel would no longer support a bayonet.
Thanks in advance!
