Good luck to them with that sale

It covers in ever stage and every machine in the process of making service rifle barrels in huge volumes

Even down to the multi story buildings for the cutting oil from dozens of machines to drain and be filtered to be pumped back to the machine rooms

There are many pages on barrel straightening and the hammer and block method is preferred to the machine method due to speed of experienced operators

This is a truly fascinating little book and I should make some copies
I expect there are some 303 tragics who would love a copy

This guy doesn't seem to think it's a myth...
