Adco can do custom barrel lengths and their barrels are gtg.

Macon Armory is another option. He'll make whatever length you want.

I have a CMMG 8.5 and it has been 100%. It end exactly at the end of a UTG Super Slim carbine length.
The only thing I didn't like was when I bought it it.showed it being square from the shoulder of the muzzle back to the chamber. When I got mine it is tapered from the chamber to muzzle then flares back to normal thickness just before the muzzle threads. But its really no big deal and doesn't seem to affect anything. |

How about something like this?
 It is 8.5" long. 1/2-28 threads. These were made for another manufacturer and are some left overs from the production run. Green Mountain blanks. Nitrided inside and out. I've also got some that are 8", 6", 14,5 and 16" that I'll be listing later this evening. |

I shop at Green Mtn. They supply a few different vendors. Why not go to the source. OR buy a 16" one of the EE and cut it down.

Just for clarification, these are Green Mountain blanks but NOT turned by them. We turn them in house. I don't think Green Mountain lists an 8.5" and we will be listing these lower than any 9mm AR barrel they have on their website.

Now that I have one of these barrels on the way, looking for input if there would be any issue swapping the CMMG bcg I currently have in my upper with a tros barrel, into the new upper with the barrel I have on the way. Anything I should check or can the bcg be freely swapped between both uppers?
Thanks |

Barrel arrived. Super quick shipping from MicroMoa. Extremely smooth purchase and great communication. They have a few of these overrun barrels for those that want one.
Will un box and may get a picture or two posted later. |

Then I'll test it suppressed and unsuppressed and be in touch if any questions come up and I'll leave feedback in this thread. |

Not sure about the new Colt style QC10 BCG, but the their Glock BCG is slightly different from the CMMG models. The lower part of the QC10 bolt face is about 1/8 inch shorter than the CMMG. The extractor is also different. The CMMG is on the left and the QC10 on the right in the picture below.
I have 2 9MM ARs, both with DDLES lowers. The CMMG BCG feeds and ejects with no problems in either one, but the last round bolt hold open operates intermittently. The QC10 BCG runs 100% when swapped into either rifle, with and without a suppressor. If the LRBHO works okay in your old upper, should be no problem running it in your new upper. If not, you may want to consider a QC10 BCG. Cost $235 but was well worth in my case. Hope this helps, Pete

I hope to get it running earlier than planned and to the range next weekend to test how it runs when swapped between the two uppers. |
