So my Armalite Upper has a headspace issue. The bolt closes on a NO GO gauge, though I don't have a field gauge to check if it's too bad to use. It's chrome lined, so any work on the barrel is out of the question. One of my fellow shooters at the club today told me that I can have a bolt matched to my barrel that will make it work. I have searched and can't find of anybody who has done this, or if this is even possible. Is it? If so, who can do it for me?
