Most military barrels that screw into a receiver are properly indexed at manufacture, but are normally short chambered. The headspace is then set by reaming to the proper depth.
During WWII Marlin had a contract for replacement barrels for the M1 Rifle. Due to some kind of slip up, the barrels were not indexed and most had to be discarded. |
