    How do you tell if a Garand gas cylinder is out of spec....??

    What is used to measure/gauge the gas cylinders? Is there a way to accurately do this using common workshop tools? And what is the minimum inside diameter before they are out of spec?

    Reason I ask is that I recently aquired a few and want to verify that they are serviceable before I offer them for sale.

    Edited: found what I needed to know.
