New manufacture barrels for all these kits that are out there and latest batch of DSA receivers. Reputable manufacture.

Press fit.

Probably more expensive than the last batches but I’m thinking still “reasonable”

Trying to gauge interest for a friend. I have no financial ties other than wanting to buy a couple myself.

In before the poll.

I voted YES.
That said, I strongly believe that DSA is going to do a batch to go with these receivers....

I emailed DSA after I got my receiver. They said their machines were tied up doing other stuff and they had no plans.

I hit yes.

I have two friends with kits, not ARFCOM members that would also get them.  I just got a receiver today and I need a barrel, as well as the other two.  It seems there are quite a few kits out there without barrels, and receivers.

I would be interested in an RPD barrel.

Ill also add, there are a lot of demilled barrel PKT and PKM kits being sold right now with no real barrel options. A real PKM barrel goes for 1.5K now. There would be a market for a run of these as well. I think these would sell well at $400.

I was hoping Curtis would do a run but they said no.

He’s working a couple avenues. I think demand is a little lower than initially thought.

Thanks for the reply.

Using this thread, and asking price on GB, I'm sure there is a market for 50-100 barrels out there.  Not everyone stops in here, and the AK files seems to have a bit less traffic over the past couple of years, but as the gun business goes, if it is ther, they will buy.  I hope this sheds some light on things, and the first one to market with a decent barrel will sell them.

RPD barrels in-stock at DSA.

Just to be clear, these in-stock are different from the ones my friend was considering making in the OP. Just a heads up that barrels are back on the market for now.
