Has anyone cut down one of the newer non m4 acr barrels? I’m picking one up, 1/7 twist, what I would say is a skinny barrel. And I want it cut to 12.5”, I’m currently running a 12.5 chopped m4 acr barrel. Just curious if there would be any issues with having it done, other than possibly opening the gas port of course.

So what needs to happen to a plain stock 16" ACR bbl to be cut to 10.5"? Probably covered somewhere but I evidently am weak in my search skills....thanks for any guidance or help. Maybe a recommendation of a company? I have a guy that says "yeah we can do it, I dont think it would be a problem" and that made me a lil leery. |

Dana at Templar Precision or ADCO would be the only people id go to for the work! |
I see Templar offers a complete package with the parts from my OEM bbl. Guess I will call em to make sure I get what I want. I have a still unfired Bushy that I bought years ago in FDE and I have always wanted to SBR it. Life just happened and now I guess Ima get around to it
