Kensal, I agree this is no job for the home hobby kind of guy. The first thing someone must realize is you need a set of barrels that have a chance to fit.And that includes all the little nuances such as the bolt and bolt plate combination.I have found that the barrels that have the greatest chance of being successfully fitted are ones that are close in serial number. As Dean suggests if they are too small to begin with there is nothing that can be done.
I am in a bit of a different situation than most as I have 30 years experience as a toolmaker and work for a company that is very pro-gun. In fact we rebuilt a hammergun last week that was a wall hanger for many years and brought it back to shooting condition just for the hell of it.
