I have read several posts in various places talking about these two issues often in the context of evaluating a rifle prior to purchase. I am currently looking at some M1 Garands and M1 carbines. I would like to add one of each to my small firearm collection. I am guessing that throat erosion is probably measured in the chamber where the bullet is positioned at firing. And obviously the muzzle erosion must be the measurement done at the muzzle.
Can anyone tell me how to make these measurements? I suppose I will need to acquire a tool for making the measurements and I will also need to find out the sprecifications of the bore for each of these firearms. Any help with any of the above would be appreciated.
