Windham Weaponry has one here.
They also offer a target crowned option. Edit: They state a standard FSB in the description so it may not be what you are looking for. |

I was originally going to buy that WW one but like you said, it does not have the F front sight. Those Ballistic Advantage barrels look interesting. Are the bores on those as corrosion resistant as the chrome lines barrels? |

Yes, the Melonited QPQ treating they use is great. And it not only makes the inside corrosion resistant but the outside as well, and looks very nice! I love their barrels and plan to buy many more in the future. They also have a coupon code for 10% off and I believe it is " save10now " .
You can't go wrong by going with them. The melonited barrels are generally more accurate then chrome lined ones as well. Should make a good shooter. |

Green mountain may be worth a look as well

The only problem with Green Mountain is they do not install FSB like he wants. Other then that I would choose a GM over the BA probably. Both are great companies and I like the Melonite coating of the BA barrels over the Phosphate parkerizing and chrome lined barrels of the GM. I think the BA is just a perfect fit in this case. And right now they have a 15% off automatically for Black Friday.

I like to use KNS pins in the front sight so I don't want to be in a position where I am limited to what is available in tall front post offerings. Regular front sight post height gives me more post options. |

The F marked FSB will make no difference on a rifle length barrel.

Wow, good thread.
I remember all sorts of wailing and gnashing of teeth when I once pointed out that the the Army hadn't even changed the part number for the barrel of the M16A4s, and questioning whether the difference was possibly as significant as many are claiming. Seems the consensus is forming around "no, it isn't' some ten years later (ironically, about a year after my post, the Army did start listing the M16A4 barrel with a different part number from the M16A2 - but they were still pretty much used interchangeably in the field, right or wrong). I'd never seen those profile comparisons, and hadn't even realize the protective "ears" aren't any higher - so a "taller" FSP is no less protected on either variant - sure seems like a non-issue to me. |
