I am looking to build a nice compact carbine bolt action, and was suggested that the Norinco or Bisley would be a cheap starting point for an action. But last weekend a gunsmith mate tells me that the Norinco 223 barrel is pressed in rather than screwed in and may be difficult to find a gunsmith keen to swap the 223 barrel for a 9mm barrel. Any one care to enlighten me as to how difficult, or not, this would be.
