Italian Garand Issue (maybe)

If you're willing, I'll pack it up along with a new .308 barrel and the stripped bolt and have you do the barrel swap.

Sounds like the safest way to go.

Yah just go to my order page and follow the instructions. If you have any questions give me a call.

So the "gunsmith" that did this isn't going to compensate you for his screw up?

Unfortunately, this happened about 10 years ago and I was not the one it happened to. You can bet he lost some business over it tho. I just get to sort it out (with Tim's help).

I think that Sarco still has the SIAU barrels in 7.62 Nato. Think they run about $145. Could install one of those and make a Tipo-2. I assembled one of these a couple of years ago.

Sent it in to Tim for re-barrel along with a replacement.

Thanks for all the replies.

Got the parts back from Tim. Everything looks great, now just have to cobble it back together.
