Do the brownells barrels come with the front sight assembly?
It isn't listed and hard to tell from pics

AR15Sport.com retro barrels also do not come with the front sight or swivel, a fact which I completely forgot when I ordered my 1/9 pencil! Fortunately I had a spare USGI A1 front sight, spring, and detent in my spare parts box. I had almost given them away on PIF a couple months ago, but knew I would need them sooner or later (in this case sooner!)

I had a spare swivel, but it was a little rough, so I opted to wait for a new one, since my weapon is 100% new.

Ya I've bought a few ar sport barrels.. Your right they didn't come with
Front sight either. I thought the brownells ones might since they come
With the slip ring... But no. No biggie ... Just another part to order.

I emailed them this morning about that then they replied and asked for the part number so they knew they were looking at the right thing. I gave them the part number and haven't heard back from them yet. I will let you guys know when I hear back from them.
