I got the first 16" barrel back from the bluer today. It's all together, and looks good!



Here's a comparison of the finished 13" and the finished 16". The 13" has the 6 1/2" forearm; the 16" has the 8" forearm. The 16" has the full length FN Mauser carbine rear sight; the 13" has the shortened FN Mauser carbine rear sight.



Work on the second 16" barrel with the Swedish Mauser sight continues.
