I ordered the 18' Stealth combo for a SPR rig but if given the choice on a 16" (bout to place my 2nd order) would you go with the stealth or the predatAr barrel? Any loss in accuracy for the lighter weight profile?? Thanks

Just have to get the conversion done on it. This barrel and trigger is gonna get me to my nice SPR goal. Also got an 18" |

It's a 14.5" barrel with a Surefire SOCOM MB, the LT adapter wasn't adapter wasn't available at the time.. It has to be pinned and welded or else it will be considered as an NFA firearm. As for the pros and cons - it's more of a preference sort out thing.

Pulled from our LaRue website reviews today ...
"Finally had time to install my 18 inch Stealth barrel kit. A quick trip to the range this morning and I couldn't be more pleased.
With my 69 grain Sierra MK reloads I am easily under a 1/2 moa. Optics were a Leupold 4 x 16 x 40. And a Harris bipod. Lower is nothing special except for the very fine MBT trigger. Awesome accuracy straight from the box. I am interested to see if it settles down more with a few hundred rounds doen the chamber. I would buy again." View Quote |

Tomorrow if Mark busts up the ToT sale like he says he is, I wonder if the barrels will be on sale as well as the triggers? He said triggers were gonna be $125, but I don't need anymore triggers. Wouldn't mind an 18 barrel to go with the 12 incher I just got.

If you seek to do battle with me this day, you will receive the best that I am capable of giving. It may not be enough, but it will be everything I have to give, and it will be impressive.

Did Mark really say triggers were going to be $125 tomorrow? I ordered two TofT specials just so I could get the triggers. Planned on selling the barrels and polymers. I bet the people at LaRue will be annoyed if I cancel those two orders but honestly it seems way easier than trying to sell stuff off.

Interesting. I've been trying to recruit a friend to split the package with me since I'm dying to try a 20" stealth.

View Quote I could always use another one, but I just worked a trade this weekend for a LT lower, now earmarked for the 20" Stealth barrel & MBT that's on the way. Personally, I'm hoping this means BCGs... and at the risk of sounding like a broken record... BCGs of the 5.56 OBR variety |

Hopped on that $125 MBT with the quickness. It's gonna be nice in my new SBR build.

Am I reading this right?
The barrels are $199 with the gas block, gas tube, & nut?!?! If I hadn't already shot my wad on the ToT Barrel/MBT/polymer kit, I would be ALL OVER that one. |

That's a sweet deal. Like it says, pre-assembled gas block and tube.

Looks like they just changed the barrel kit to just the barrel.
|
|
|
looks like the barrel listings were corrected to not be a kit with block and tube...so those of us that bought the package last week didnt get screwed
wouldnt have matter anyway, Mark flat out said those of us who did would be on a special email list |
|
|
I wonder how many bought before they changed it to barrel only?

They fixed it.
It's 199 for just the barrel now. Gas block, tube, & nut are extra. ETA: beat |
