Step away from the crack-pipe! You don't lengthen an M1A, you always shorten... Buy a full length version and leave that beauty alone!

A good smith can put a new barrel on your rifle.

I'll worry about switching barrels when I approach the end of the barrel's life...I'm at around 2000 rounds right now.

Any good gunsmith should have a barrel stretcher in his shop. just keep in mind that the longer you stretch it, the thinner it gets.

SeaDweller, Just go to your local hardware store and buy a wooden dowel that is about 30 inches long and less in diameter than a .308, then stick it in the barrel and put it in the safe. OR you could just IM me and get that short rifle off your hands! For a low price that is. |
