FN barrels are G2G, great product from everything I've read. I think PSA uses them for their brand products.

They're not cheap though. $350 and you still have to install an FSB if you're going for an A2 clone. I'm excited by
this offering nonetheless. |

Too bad you can't order right from the factory, have to find a distributor.

FN is my preferred barrel over anything. Only thing that would make this better is if we could order them straight from FN like ^he said

Why no FSB?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Why no FSB? I'd guess that they're leaving the option up to the buyer. Depending on the build, a F-marked or standard A2, or maybe a low profile gas block would be appropriate. |

Adco charges $115 to install a customer supplied FSB with taper pins. I don't know what shipping would cost but I'm guessing that's another $50 round trip. It's starting to be a really pricey barrel.

John Thomas of Retro Arms Works charges $50 for the FSB install + $25 return shipping. John Brace, aka Braceman, used to charge $40, but is so tied up with his new job he hardly accepts any rifle work anymore.

I called the three dealers that FN lists closest to me. None of them can order direct from FN. I am curious who can and what they charge for the 20" offering.

Brownells carries all sizes, 14.5" - 20" for $300. I believe they have free shipping coupons as well.
