With or without front sight base? Green Mountain has one for $135, no front sight base, stripped just the barrel with extension. Del-ton also has one, but with front sight, barrel nut, and handguard cap for $169. Hope that helps.

Quote HistoryI almost ordered those but they are M4A1 profile and I need the old standard M4 profile. Called them and was on hold for 20 min, emailed Monday and still no reply. Classic Firearms had some for $70 over the weekend but I didn't see them until Monday when they were sold out. Guess I'll have to contact a manufacture. I'm not used to trying to find low end stuff, I'm always searching for the high end stuff for personal use. |

We are making training rifles with a ton of features and modifications that I can't go into just yet. We completely took apart some Colt rifles and our machinist says the Colt barrels are too hard to machine. I think its BS and would do it, but they don't want to pay an engineer to machine stuff. So they need to be M4 profile to match our design. The green mountain ones would be perfect but say chromed bore though. I have a feeling that's whats really giving the machinist issues. |

Skip the M-4 Go with the mid length. This guy. http://www.del-ton.com/Rifle_Kit_p/rkt117.htm kwg I would have to re-do 6-8 months of design work and re-order several thousands of dollars worth of custom parts and electronics. There is a reason I asked for M4 profile. For personal use, yes I prefer mid length or my SBR I saw that one but am worried that since it doesn't say who the manufacture is, and that it says "M4-style barrel" That the profile might not be a true M4 profile. I found some DSA ones that I think will work for $120. Thanks for everyones help. |

Barrels are expensive. Why not just profile steel rods?

Try CBC Industries. My understanding is that the ones that say "Colt overrun" are made by ESS.
