    I had no idea... I've done a swap like this before with no issues. Maybe I just got lucky before?

    Basically, yeah you got lucky. 16 barrels are considered one piece replacement with the fsb, nut, cap all being one unit. With patience and time I have place a used fsb on a new barrel, I've also welded the holes and redrilled one, and I've also placed a new fsb on a predrilled barrel. All worked out pretty well, but took some time to get it right. Also helps to have all the equipment. (welder, mill, proper measuring devices)
