bought this barrel reported to be a navy barrel with approximately 200-300 round thru it. My plan is to have it cut down to 18" and threaded. It arrived with the last thread buggered up. It looks to me like someone dropped the barrel on the chamber end after it was removed from the action. Can these threads be chased and corrected when I have the work done or is the 'smith going to laugh in my face,tell me I wasted my money and try to sell me a new tube?
