    Barrel shims

    I'm looking for a source for 03 Springfield barrel shims. I was told that even in the Army's manual they listed a P/N. I need .008" of shim if anybody has a source or a few laying around.

    don't shim

    read Chuck in Denver's post,


    I have rebarreled dozens of them, never needed a shim, and have had to peen the barrel a bit as Chuck mentioned a few times,
    easy to do,

    8 thou should not be hard to make up by peening
