I was looking through the manual trying to find out what the maximum dimensions are for the lathe itself would a 16-in barrel fit in it?

Sweet little machine, wish I had a trade for you man.

Max distance between centers shows as 330mm which would pretty much make a 16" barrel a no-go.

dependent on the particular chuck you used though and the OD of your stock, maybe possible. Actually just checked further, shows max bore of 20mm so in theory if you were working a pretty skinny profile barrel, maybe!

That looks a lot like a variant of the Central Machinery 5980, but with a powered feed screw making it capable of turning threads.

If that is the case, and if that is the only difference, I believe the 5980 has an MT2 taper in both the tailstock and the milling spindle, and an MT3 taper in the lathe headstock. From the 5980 manual:

Max. swing dia. over bed 360mm
Max. dia. of turning (middle cabon steel) 40mm
Max. distance between centers 330mm
Max. longitudinal stroke 210mm
Max. transverse stroke 145mm
Morse taper of spindle hole No. 3
Bore dia of spindle 20mm
Morse taper of tailstock hole No. 2
Spindle speeds 500, 900, 1600r/min
Turning motor 370W
Max. drilling dia. 16mm
Morse taper of milling spindle hole No. 2
Max. dia. of end mill 12mm
Max. dia. of facer 63mm
Max. stroke of milling quill 75mm
Spindle speeds 5 steps 430~2000r/min(220v/380v)
4 steps 430~1500r/min(110v)
Milling motor 250~370w
Area of bench (LxW) 155mm x 200mm
Turn - round of drilling - milling box +/- 90°

It has a pass thru chuck for long stock, maybe 3/4" diameter max.
