Correct and correct.
The barrel is an unlined CM HBAR, 1:9 unless it was specifically ordered with something else (which normally wasn't possible as we batch built them rather than built to order).
We discontinued the Entry Operators after we discontinued the CAR Wraparound handguard that was found on them. We built up all that we could, and then sold off that inventory until they were gone. The Operator 2s are enjoying their second lifetime with us...having been introduced one year as a limited time special that was supposed ot run from roughly labor day until Christmas) but sold so well that we kept them alive for two and a half years. Once discontinued, we received a lot of requests to bring them back, and after about nine months, we did with some subtle changes.
They still sell decently, so they're still mostly around. The Entry is gone, and eventually the Tactical And Elite will go too, replaced with something different.
