since many of us have been rebuilding shooters out of receivered drill rifles, i thought id share.
most if not all DP A3,s had the barrel welded to the receiver, some were removed nicely, some were removed,,,not so nicley.
however,.every one iv rebarreld, has had reciever face issues, likely from the heat of being welded, or some like the one pictured was ground on heavy.
what happens is, the witnes marks are too far apart to be able to get barrel index set right.
you can dress the face by hand..long and hard, or match face the receiver as i did here,
notice before, that the edge is very uneven, ane likely the rifle would shoot less then good.
even after facing it, it still has some grind marks, but if i took anymore off it would over index.
right now the index is just right.Attachment 15248Attachment 15249Attachment 15250Attachment 15251Attachment 15252
