Do any of you know a gun smith who would be good with an Italian Carcano ? Hopefully in Eastern Ma or Southern NH. But I will take an info you my have thanks Paul.
What makes the bolt crappy? Pics.
You can find bolts for $80 or so.
Try the reamer and gun tool rental places for HS gauges.
Pacific Tool and gauge has go no go for $37 each.
I think finding a smith or shop with a carcano HS gauge will be harder than just buying one.
As for good smiths with military rifles try Noah's motors in saugus.
Pack and Postal is another , has so much surplus stuff
Thanks I always for get about Noahs. I'm not far from there, but just never think of him. I do most of my own gun tinkering, but this one, I don't know.
