I don’t own an ACR and I’m tempted to buy one to have it cut down to 14.5, pinned, and threaded.

I don't own an ACR either. I wonder if I should cross post in GD so an actual ACR owner might see this thread.

Maybe not the on price, but there's definitely a typo, if not a deliberate false posting. The description says 18.5" as shown in picture, but the picture clearly is of a 16" with the M203 cutout. One of them is lying.

$90. If I hadn’t spent my BF allotment on other goodies, I would have bought one even without owning an ACR.

Maybe a typo like I said, but I don’t think JSE is trying to screw anyone. They’ve been around for years and they have always had good reviews. I have used them several times. You can get a complete barrel at Brownells for 560 right now so if they say I owe more money I’ll pass on the barrel.

Those are Canadian Acr barrels, you also need an indexing pin. I’ve had a couple, the prices are really good but the cost of completing the barrel is really close to buying a real deal 14.5 or 10.5 etc...

They are not DMR barrels but basically a longer 16” profiled barrel. They should be 1/7 too.

I bought it to send to Marvin Pitts so he can flute or dimple it, shorten it to 11.5 and put his piston set up on it.

Did any one get theirs? I am curious as to how this turned out.

I got mine. It's good to go. It's being sent to Marvin as we speak.

I did see that JSE raised the price to 115 or something like that.

JSE is good to go and sent the barrel out pretty fast. If you'd like an extra ACR barrel this is it.

It’s being sent to Marvin Pitts to be cut to 11.5, fluted or dimpled and have his piston set up put on it.

Nice, if you done mine me asking, did he quote you on price?

To be honest I didn’t ask. I would guess between 7 and 9 will be the final price. I had him shorten and dimple my first ACR barrel and it was around 450 I believe.

Solid dude and his work is second to none!

He has a price list / order form that he emails out, so you just pick what you want.
