Re: Setting back a 1917 enfield barrel.
It's an Eddy I have 3 of them. I had one barrel removed elsewhere, the "gunsmith" charged me $100 to check the headspacing and then remove the barrel. I though he was not very knowledgeable and brought it home. I ordered a Forster field gauge...
Re: Setting back a 1917 enfield barrel.
That is not a bad idea, I don't know how that would affect the temper, but I could true the locking lugs on the bolt on the lathe, and dress the bolt face, given a little extra metal. Right now the rifle is very inaccurate, 6 inch groups at 30 yards...
I'm new here so be gentle. I have a 1917 Enfield that will not close on a field gauge, One of the locking lugs (the left one when the bolt is open), has some pitting on the bearing surface and I seriously doubt it is bearing. I have had a number of split cases, all separating on the same side...
