So, since these are just the bolt, no carrier, what is everyone looking purchasing?

Going to try again
@LaRue_Tactical Mark, How long will the purchase window be open. I'd like to order on Wed. Also, I'd like to thank you for giving us an option to only order one barrel. I'm going to take $100 and put it toward the LaRue Warrior's Ascent Charity Raffle because of the lower price option. If anyone else is interested in doing the same, check out the thread here: https://www.ar15.com/forums/industry/LaRue-Warrior-s-Ascent-Charity-Rifle-Official-Raffle-Thread-UPDATE-II-in-OP/219-286802/ What's the muzzle device thread specs on this unit? Which caliber Tranquilo brake would be needed? What's the gas block diameter requirement? Thanks |

Thanks View Quote And I mean this in the nicest way possible, but if you're seriously counting days in credit card cycles for a $249 barrel purchase, perhaps it is time to focus less on bullet diameters and more on your finances. You'll be glad you did later on. |

From what Mark said I'm not sure if I sinned but I went ahead and placed a second order for another pair. If I erred I'm sure they'll cancel my second order but if not there will be more happy .224 Valkyrie owners.

Just because there is an answer that looks obvious, doesn't mean it is the answer. Mark and Co. may have been considering a target weight barrel that may have required a 308 muzzle brake. As to the financial advice...I appreciate your attempt to help but I'm good. I keep them in order by tracking the last details of in and out flow so that my bills are always paid in full and on time, while maximizing how much money is left for savings. Order was placed earlier tonight and donation made to the charity rafle as well. SUURG set for delivery tomorrow Thanks again Mark. |

Cheapest Barrett 6.8 mag come direct from Barrett. $38.00 each.
Midway charged me $50.00 each, but I'm sending them back. Guess it pay's to look around first. |

So it sounds like the conclusion is... 6.8 SPC mags, Rifle gas, .750 gas block, 5.56 bolt carrier? Assuming 5.56 suppressors are what everyone will be using?
