IMO look for a Palmetto Mid length CHF barrel and that will get you what you want. You may have to buy the upper, and the prices the way they are now, you will be saving cash by going that route.

Thank you for the quick responses, but I'm actually looking for just the striped barrel with the FSB. Everything else I will be putting together myself (ie upper assembly.) Apologies if I was unclear... That is a solid choice however...

I love my DD 14.5" barrel. I got it as a barrel assembly - barrel, FSB (installed), gas tube and delta ring assembly/barrel nut - straight from Daniel Defense for my M4 clone. It's a great barrel.

Id get a PSA chf upper on sale, scavenge the barrel and either sell the leftovers or keep for future use and still come out ahead in cost on a DD barrel assembly or spikes for that matter. That's my opinion.

That's my opinion. You make a good point. May just have to consider this route. Just a little extra work on striping the items I do not want but will have a nice start to a pic-a-part bin

There's a thread floating around here that tests barrels by Centurion,Noveske,PSA and Spikes IIRC,the conclusion was they all shot good,with the PSA 12.5" slightly better They also said FN made them all. IIRC Someone here should know where the link is.

If outsourced Spikes or PSA would be the obvious way to go seeing that you are just forking over the extra funds for the noveske name at that point. |

I am looking for a 10.5 myself with similar specs. I am probably going to go with PSA CHF 10.5 since I heard that FN makes their barrels who happen to also make Spikes' CHF barrels.
They are the only CHF in 10.5" that I have found so far. That or I was going to buy a BCM or DD 11.5 and have it cut down to 10.5. |

Rainier Arms Mountain barrel can always have an fsb pinned to it. I'm sure rainier would be glad to do it for you. At the sale price they've got it for right now I don't know why you'd pick anything else.

I have the PSA (FN) CHF uppers in 10.5 and 14.5. Would recommend either that fit the need. Great barrels and solid uppers. Both are utility weapons for me, although the 10.5 gets plenty of time on a pistol lower blasting tula at steel plates. I'm considering another 10.5 to scope out, maybe 2-7x as a ranch rifle. QCB style works well on critters from a quad.
ETA: Almost forgot, there's the 10.5 <----- there

Still new to the AR world... http://www.riflegear.com/p-2000-fn-145-carbine-17-twist-chf-barrel-556.aspx this is an M4 profile. note the same beyond gas block journal. http://www.riflegear.com/p-3434-fn-145-lightweight-midlength-17-twist-chf-barrel-556.aspx and the lightweight profile. The lengths and gas port distances may differ but you should be able to see the differences in countour. another contour is is the M4A1 which offers a thicker area just beyond the chamber area to control barrel whip and assist with heat absorption. The extra weight on the nose of a govt contour is simple parasitic weight. It really does little to nothing for quality of the barrel, the most important area to have more mass is back by the chamber. Stiffens and provides mass for heat to disburse. That doesn't mean the other barrels are bad, just means they may heat up more especially during full auto use.

Nope that one is button rifled. They will say if they are CHF. OP spikes sells FN button rifled and CHF blank based barrels. That is still a righteous barrel. It would not be a bad purchase, just not the one for you if you are set on CHF. Quote HistoryQuoted:

If I were shopping for a CHF barrel today, it would be this exact barrel. http://aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=XSTSB51605ML&name=Spikes+Tactical+Mid-Length+16%22+Barrel&groupid=2098 Not a fan of the government profile, this is superior. I don't believe this barrel is CHF. My bad, thought that was a one of their CHF barrels but its not...still a very nice profile. |

Only DD and FN make CHF barrels. Unless something changed recently, I don't think BCM makes their own barrels. BCM has good deals right now if you want a complete upper, but if you are looking for just the barrel, stick to Spikes, PSA, etc. They sell FN barrels at good prices. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Bravo company. I think I'm going with BCM....Just waiting to see if there will be any better prices offered anywhere. Trying to find a sale or something.... Only DD and FN make CHF barrels. Unless something changed recently, I don't think BCM makes their own barrels. BCM has good deals right now if you want a complete upper, but if you are looking for just the barrel, stick to Spikes, PSA, etc. They sell FN barrels at good prices. Ruger does hammer forging also. |
