Garand Field Gauge

[JonJ]

I've had an HRA bolt to replace the SA bolt on my HRA Garand for a while. Does anyone have a Field Guage that I could borrow so I can check when I sawp them out?
Thanks.

Only one I have is for 8mm Mauser. If no one chimes in check with a local gun shop that does light smithing work or rifle inspections.

JonJ, I thought you also needed a No-Go gauge when swapping bolts. Just in case the new bolt is longer and tighter. Not enough headspace is as bad as too much IIRC.

Jon, watch for Email!

A No-Go would be useful if I were re-barreling and is not needed for a bolt swap. If I wanted to be picky, I'd use a Go with the Field but for the simple swap the Field would just show maximum safe headspace.

OK, Len.
