   Hey guys,
Are all 2A barrels chrome-lined, or is that only present on some of them?

Thanks!

Steve

	lawndart. All the information I am finding by Skip Stratton, Ian Skennerton, and the renowned Enfield Armourer, Capt. Peter Laidler does not address the possibility of the Ishapore 2A and 2A1 barrels being chrome lined. The only information readily available is that the 2A was manufactured between 1963 and 1970 and then progressed into the 2A1 until the early 1980's when RFI subsequently manufactured the 7.62mm 1A Rifle (FN/FAL/L1A1 Clone.) I checked both of my 2A1 barrels and they are not chrome lined.

	Ah, great! Maybe the one I came across when looking was actually the exception and not the norm. I appreciate the input, and am glad they're not chrome lined, as that would make it significantly harder to re-chamber. Thank you!
