My L1A1

Thank you, how do I see if the barrel was replaced? Are there normaly any markings on a replacement?
The rifle has new Italian proof marks.

Pop off the handguards and take a look at the markings, you will probably find the the same answer by looking at the left hand side of the gas block as they always seemed to come as a pared item in service.

Re ex crabs suggestion, great idea, I've got Hythe sights on all three of mine.
