Like the Geico commercial says: "everybody knows that".
...except that I'm not sure "everybody knows that." It's one thing to bandy about that "making a carbine barrel is easy," and quite another to actually realize that accurately re-creating a carbine barrel might not be so simple. I was posting this for the people reading this who might not have the experience with or particular knowledge about the topic.

And that includes people even like me, for instance--I was not conscious of this particular difficulty until I talked to Tom Heller about this specific topic a couple of years ago.
