I am building a SBR. 5.56 are easy to find, but I am leaning towards a 6.8.
If I send you a 16" 6.8, I'll need it cut down to 10½, so I am looking to see what the damage will be. Thanks in advance. ETA: Any issues with a SBR of this length cycling? I don't wanna spend my money creating a problem build. |

Looks like it would be $65.00 Copied and pasted from http://adcofirearms.com/shopservices/shop_.cfm?code=1 Barrel Threading For AR and other standard Barrels $65.00 This covers cutting/crowning as well as threading. These threads will be the perfect size threads and will be perfectly concentric to the bore. We do U.S. RH threads only. The barrel must be removed from the receiver for this service. |
As nicholsmf said, $65 to cut/thread barrel. If sent as a complete upper, you will need a dis/Re-assemble ($35 for std, $50 for FF). As for function, we haven't had a lot of experience with the 6.8 in SBR, but it really should be no different. I don't see any reason 10.5" shouldn't run ok.
