M1917 barrel dimensions/detail

**Torch** · 07-04-2015, 10:55 AM

Hey guys,wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a site that could supply the dimensions and breech/muzzle details for a spare M1917 barrel so I can make a dummy to fill an M8 spare barrel cover I have?
Thanks Sean

Or maybe even someone who has a M1917 and might have it apart for some reason could grab a few quick dimensions and a snap of the breech details?

I have several barrels for a M1917A1 I can measure for you. It may be a day or so before I can get to it though.

I may be able to do better than measurements, I contacted a friend that may have scans of the original drawings for the barrels from Rock Island Arsenal. I should know later today.
