Yes ... I know the barrel attaches to the receiver
But ... while taking the barrel off of a Turkish Mauser, I noticed that there is a shoulder inside the action that looks like it might actually be where the chamber end of the barrel locates itself. Previously, I had assumed that the shoulder at the muzzle end of the barrel threads located itself against the frontmost surface of the action. Now that I see another possibility, I would really appreciate some confirmation. Can one of you with experience clarify this for me?
Thanks in advance!

ps ... I just got my C&R listed with Brownells, so I will be getting the Mauser Bible ... hopefully at a discount ... that you all have recommended. I just need to search for the author's name in the old posts.
