Common sense anyone?
Personally at least I'm mostly interested in H profile barrels and in stripped barrels for SMLE MkI and MkV rebuilds. The RFI barrels won't work for H profiles and they will require removing the bases already there for MkI and MkV rifles on top of everything else, which just feels wasteful. As well as Long Lee barrels which can't be had in new condition for love or money right now.
