1903 witness marks

[SkyKid]

Hello all
I'm a newbie here
I need some help with a 1903 receiver and a barrel I bought
When I hand tighten the barrel receiver the witness marks are about 7/16 inch away
Is this too far Any help would be appreciated
Thanks SkyKid aka Frenchie

Thank you Sir

Do you have all of the proper tools? Have you re-barreled anything before this project? If not, ship it off to Chuckindenver. It will be done ASAP and done right. I'm guessing the chamber will be tight or too tight. Chuck can fix that problem, too. Chuck did my M1917 and did it right. Good luck.

What would it cost to ship it to you and have it done
An estimate is ok
I would like to compare to a local gs

Another question
If you do it for me
How would I send the receiver and barrel to you
Do I have to go thru an ffl?
Thanks for your help
