Was it Kreiger that made the barrels for the SAM-R type rifles?  Does anyone have such a thing sitting around in stock, or is it a straight-from-Kreiger sort of deal?


I have a need for a better varmint upper... and a SAM R cheap sorta knock off is what Ive set my sights on.

IIRC, Kreiger did make them.
I think ADCO had or has them in stock.

Its just a standard 20" 1:7 CMP Service Rifle barrel with an M4 barrel extension.

A less expensive alternative would be a RRA 1:8 or WOA 1:7 - both under $300.00

Are they threaded?  I'd kinda like to put a Cav comp, or any other comp on the end of it.  Nekkid muzzles bother me...

East Coast SAM-R:




IIRC, the West Coast SAM-R was an M16A4 with an ACOG mounted, so it's barrel would be the 20" gov't profile barrel.

It was my understanding that the "Jejunite" A4s where as pictured with the Krieger HBAR and other modifications to be used in the SAM-R role by the Scout Sniper community, sometimes as a "spotters rifle" on Scout Sniper teams. A West Coast A4 is a govt profiled/ACOGd weapon without the modification of the SAM-R. I have seen several "West Coast" A4s sans ACOG in the hands of Marines in Iraq. I am not sure what it takes to get an ACOG, but I hope its not too much.
If anyone knows more than "snippets" of the story, I would be interested in knowing more.
