A buddy of mine wants to build a retro rifle. I'm more into carbines, so I have no idea who makes the correct barrel profile. Any and all help is most appreciated.

Many thanks!

Your best solution is to buy a Colt barrel.

Fulton Armory has Criterion 20" LW 1/8 barrels.

DEZ Arms offers a 20" 1/7" non chromed A1 profile barrel. I built a 603 clone with one, it's a nice shooter.

I think Green Mountain offer LW 20inch barrels. They also make barrels for Colt.

I'll let my buddy know.

if all else fails you could get a regular barrel and have it turned down. a buddy of mine was building an SP1 replica, bought a DD barrel and sent it to ADCO. they turned it down and reparked in that Colt "gray" color. looks and shoot great...
