Hey everyone, I got a line on two Green Mountain barrels. These are stripped 20" pencil barrels in 1:12 twist.

Is there a place that I can find all the parts that I need in one place to finish the barrels? I really want to cut down on shipping prices if I can.

What is the difference between FSB .625 F marked and non F marked? Does it matter if one is F marked or not?

So what is it that I need to complete the barrels. A list of parts would be great. If you have links that would also be great too.

Thanks everyone.

---->. F-marked is for Flat top ARs & M4s, so you want a NON-F FSB<-----

Thank you everyone!

I'm hoping that a few more of these barrels or other barrels pop up. I got lucky that I asked GM when I did and two were found in house. I will copy the parts list and if more stripped barrels pop up I know what I will need.

AR15 Sport has most of what you'll need in their retro section. Click the Upper Parts section for all but one of the parts BW listed and then do a search for the barrel nut. You might find some of the individual parts cheaper elsewhere but it's nice to get everything in one package.

I was looking over there earlier. I think they have most everything. The slip rings they don't or I didn't see them.

They have reproduction slip rings on the Upper Parts page in both black and XM grey.



And I started to say thanks for compiling the list to boywonder777 in my original post but it didn't survive my editing for some reason. Thanks, Lionel! After buying the stripped Colt barrel from GPC I'm going to have to be doing the same. In the past I've bought either complete upper assemblies or barreled uppers, so this is new to me also.
