I've been on a DIY kick lately. This is a long post.
I don't know why, but I started wondering if you could get spare barrels for Mosins and and replace a worn out barrel.
You can pay for the service, it's not cheap, but it's not prohibitively expensive either if you can live on ramen for a couple of weeks.

Then I checked Youtube and found Bruce. He's an interesting guy. I learned that people are taking UK-59 vz machine gun barrels and cutting them down on lathes to fit Mosins.
This is the video I found him on first. He removes a Mosin barrel from a receiver.
How to cut and crown a Mosin barrel.
Bonus video, Adding a Golf Ball Launcher to your Mosin.
