Is Criterion the sole manufacturer of .308 M1 Garand barrels?
I have had no luck trying to locate a .308 barrel.
I can’t imagine that there is little to no demand for them.

Probably. CMP used up all the existing supply of .308 barrels on some of the Experts they were selling. The demand for Garand barrels list limited. Best bet is to keep checking the CMP forum to see if one comes up there.

There was a period of time, that other than heavy barrels, it was very difficult to find standard GI profile Garand barrels in 308.

Several companies have made them from time to time, but possibly not in continuous production.

It is hard to compete with the manufacture that is tooled up to supplying CMP. Besides CMP, demand is very soft.
