Re: Post war Mannlicher barrel

Kuduae has mentioned in the past that the post WW2 actions have the primary extraction cams machined in the end of the barrel as opposed to the pre-war models where they are machined in the end of the action. This of course makes re-barreling tricky as the primary extraction cams are difficult to machine without special purpose built machinery. Externally on the bolt is easy but internally is a different story. I would like to see how the breech end of the barrel looks so that I can get an idea of how much and what sort of work is involved if one needs to re-barrel a post war model. If you can help that would be greatly appreciated.

Matt.
