m1 barrel

[DX250]

I was just given a SA garand barrel and would like to build a cast gun in 30 cal does it sound like a good idea to rethread this for a mauser action I have or should i just trade it for a more sutable tube? The bore is clean with sharp shiny rifleing. It has S-A-46 and the Springfield logo stamped on the upper side and that apears to be a MIL number on the bottom.

I thought i was in the gunsmithing catagory when i typed this post i will post this their.

I'm sure there are a lot of SA M1s out there with pitted barrels that the owners would like to get a good original repacement barrel for. Bet you'd come out ahead trading or selling for a suitable Mauser barrel.
