Hello all,
I have been thinking I would convert my Garand to a .308 using a Criterion commercial barrel, and having the thing installed by a gunsmith. Are there any other modifications necessary to the rifle to convert from a .30-06 to .308 aside from the barrel swap? Any modifications necessary to the operating rod or gas cylinder? I've seen a .308 magazine spacer block for sale on some sites which sell the barrels, but is this necessary?
Thanks for any information you can give me.
