barrel fit ?

[steve hill]

Hello I just recieve a drop in 62 cal barrel from
green mountain problem is it drops right into breech
but then the bracket under barrel doesnt hang down far enough for the wedge pin to go through when I push it
just slides under not through please help!

 

First off don't force it, as you have a major prybar there. Try comparing it to your other barrel. lay them side by side on a flat surface upside down and compare. You might have to set them on a couple of boards or something to remove th sights from the equation. Look at the hook tang of both, it may nee some metal removed. To prove this loosen your tang screw two or three turns and see if it will then fit. Most aftermarket barrels need some minor fitting to work. Hope this helps, as for the cleanout screw, it's probably 8-32 or 10-32. Hardware store will have one Use antisieze on it.
