    M1icon carbine Criterion barrels sold by Tradeex Canadaicon are very good quality, and appear to be MIL-SPEC, except they are longer by 0.75". However, they are not parkerized, have no gas piston or nut, and, as mentioned, have to be reamed to correct headspace. Your carbine would need to be de-registered also to get it out of the RCMP Restricted classification. These longer barrels should be professionally installed, if more info required, please send a PM to me here or on GCN.

    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.

    Bird Blaster,

    Welcome to the carbine forum. As you have already found, the members here are friendly and helpful.

    If you get your barrel, do a follow up with pictures.

    Again, welcom and enjoy.

    Between the two of you I know it'll get done. Handy to have you both here as well as over there.

    Great info here!

    I found a criterion barrel and ordered that.
    Having never done it, what is the de-registration process?

    You'll have to have the gun set up and finished. Then you need to have a verifyer examine it and do the paperwork on it, send it in to the RCMP. I had to surrender the barrels of anything I was taking off the restricted list or prohibited list...your mileage may vary and you may choose to argue about it. You likely won't receive any paperwork to show you're de-registered, I didn't. Ask around and you'll find a verifier. Your local gun club or gun shop may know one. I know about five around here...
    Regards, Jim
