Re: M1A Rebarreling Question
I will do quite a bit of home smithing, but an M1A I dont even take down beyond normal field stripping. Anything more then that I have a friend that I call to come over and help me. Waaaay to many moving things on an M1A that need to be aligned and in proper adjustment or things get bent or broken... or worse.
Take it to a smith who is well versed in working on M1A/M14 rifles to do any serious work like rebarreling. I have built AR's from scratch, and rebarreled Rem 700 with prethreaded and short chambered after market barrels, but I dont mess with my M1A.
