    Next up was to rebarrel it.
    The 788 tenon thread is a fairly small 1"x20tpi so there was plenty of meat left in the palma profiled knox once the .308 chamber was trimmed off.
    Once centred in the lathe I profiled it for the new tenon thread and also a thread on the knox for the barrel nut that will secure the fore end.













    The barrel was trimmed to a more compact 18" for a flush fitting over barrel suppressor.



    Tommy, 300CALMAN and takbok like this.
