Matchless 500 GS barrel

[Qball]

Looking for any old matchless G80 or AJS 500 parts between 1949-1955 i believe were prety much the same in particular i need a new barrel as I screwed mine past the point of repair.  Any spares or if someone knows the location of an old junker.  please let me know.  my budget is slim but dont mind paying for needed parts.  Any help is appreciated.
