Hi ADCO,

I'd like to get my SCAR16 S barrel cut and threaded with a perm pin/weld to have an overall length of 16" with the factory FN muzzle device. My barrel OD is ~ .585" according to my China caliper. I'm looking at how to submit my request on your site properly.

The factory muzzle device is 2" and requires timing. What's the best way to ask for this? Cut/Thread to 14" and install/time included muzzle device for barrel OAL length of 16"?

Apologies if I am over complicating things I just want to make sure I don't screw anything up before I submit and cause problems .

Thanks for your consideration

Thruman.

You really need about .700 OD to properly time/shim a muzzle device.   You;ll need the shoulder on your SCAR.

Thanks Bigbore, I saw that on the service description. My real question is how do I correctly specify the desired barrel length to be 16" overall with a 2" factory FN muzzle device? Is it just as simple as asking for 14" threading with shoulder and time, pin, weld the muzzle device? I might be over thinking this, if I am let me know.

Thanks again

Thurman

Send the barrel and muzzle device.  Tell us you want 16" OAL and we'll do the math.
