    Barrel installation

    I'm installing a new barrel in my A1 upper. It tightens up at1 o'clock, but is loose at 12 o'clock. What are my options? Thanks for any advice.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Do you mean the serrated barrel nut won't allow the gas tube through when tight? You have a tooth in the way? Did you grease the threads?
