vz58

Can somebody please measure the barrel diameter where it goes into the trunion in your vz58? I've found a cheap receiver, but I suspect that the barrel hole might be oversized. Thanks.

Oh man Jacques would have the answer for you - but he's not around.

The diameter of the barrel has been found to vary quite a bit.

People have had anywhere from 0.8225 to 0.8263. The differences don't seem to matter what year the kits were made. So it is a hit and miss.

What kind of receiver is it?

The guy said it is US made with military markings, so I would guess OOW?
He said that the barrel hole diameter is .821, so I guess even with the thinnest barrel diameter I'll have a pretty nice press fit? Thanks.
