When I installed the barrel from the Eddystone I had to modify the threads a pequeño bit
At the time I did not have a 308 Norma Magnum, so? I installed the M1917 barrel on a P14 receiver. I cut the chamber with one of those give-a-way reamers. The rifle worked so well I decided to install a 30/06 M1917 barrel on another P 14 receiver.

A smith/friend died just over a year ago, I went for a visit about the time he swore off of P14s; that was OK by me but I was curious as to why so I asked.
