K31 barrel replacement help

[TheCyaba]

Hi does anyone know any shops capable of replacing a k31 barrel? Thanks in advance

That a tall order for anyone outside of Switzerland. Do you have a spare good barrel?
Hămmerli used to do it.

I would think if anyone can do it, it would be Markus at Calgary Shooting Centre.
As I recall, they can offer a .308 conversion for a 7.5x55 chambered rifle as well (but not cheap).

Just buy a new rifle, probably cheaper in the long run.

Why replace the barrel?

 

[Shooting Centre]

We have all the correct Swiss military barrelling tools and can replace barrels however we have no 7.5x55 barrels available.
We could use old barrel stubs and turn a 30 cal blank into it but as indicated above it starts to get pricey
