I have an old Ishapore 2A1 Enfield rifle. It's been sitting in the safe for years, so I pulled it out yesterday and took it to the range. The brass was sticking in the chamber, so I checked it out closely when I got home.
There are some pits or damage of some kind around the rear of the chamber. I think the bore and chamber on these is chromed, and I suspect that maybe the chrome was damaged in that area and corrosion/rust got a foothold underneath it, and grew as it sat in the safe for years.
Obviously on a rifle like this, the barrel can't be set back and rechambered, even if it wasn't chromed. I wonder if there's anything at all that can be done.
