Removing barrel, Excalibur?

[scharfschutzen63]

The L42A1 and L39a1 use indexing washers on the barrel installation, so the bearing must be on the front face of the receiver.

The L42A1 and L39a1 use indexing washers on the barrel installation, so the bearing must be on the front face of the receiver.

They are both based on the No4 rifle, and as stated in post #18 they do bear on the front face.

The original question is about an LSA (Lee Metford Mk11) which does NOT bear on the front face.
