I recently traded a family member for an M1 Garand. The barrel has import markings on it, and seems to be worn. Still shootable but probably lost some it's accuracy. I was thinking of getting a different barrel for it. Anyone know a gunsmith around NOVA who does this?

Gus's Garands is your best bet but he usually has a 6 month lead time. If you are mechanically inclined, I encourage you to buy the tools and do it yourself, it isn't too terribly complicated. I'd he happy to walk you through the process if you choose to DIY
