M1 Carbine Barrel

[imntxs554]

Thanks Bob and ALL the others who replied to my post and sent PM's and emailed me with ideas and for help. I just received a phone call from Chuck and he told me things I did not even think about. Like one Major thing is the Spring Tube. Many People forget about it and crack it when doing a barrel change and then your really up the creek. You don't want crack a Hand Stamped Receiver, you just lost a lot of Value if you do, then you got to find one which is almost impossible to do and just go with a regular receiver. The price for the tool I was going to buy is 3/4's of what he will charge to do it right. Thanks for the replies and help. I'm not ready to do this swap. I would if I had a inexpensive Carbine to practice on and it didn't matter if I screwed it up. It wouldn't hurt as bad. Thank You.
