I was given a Model 50 barrel for free a few years ago. The owner of the rifle bought it for the stock and action, and wanted the gunsmith to rebarrel it in a different caliber. He left the barrel with the gunsmith saying he didn't need it, the gunsmith said he had no use for another .30-06 Mauser barrel. I was in the right place at the right time and the barrel was given to me. I put it on a project Mauser action that I had picked up for $50. You know its a good project when the Boyd's stock is the most expensive component of the assembly.
