I've got a 16 in stainless heavy bbl that I want to have fluted and also bead blasted to a satin finish. Any suggestions on who to send it to ?? |
Suggest you read the following on this forum re "fluting" before you make the investment. ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=12&t=261325 ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=262255 ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=12&t=261995 BTW: I already have one guy mad at me for breaking the fluting topic, but he hasn't read my apology in that same post.   ETA: URLs |

thanks for the links Big-FEDhIts a RRA so it's button-rifled. It's a sub MOA bbl now and I've been very please with the accuracy but after reading the threads, I'm a little apprehensive about even having it turned down under the h/g because of the stress factors but I would like to have it a little more carry friendly while walking around the "back 40" with it. How much can it be turned down with minimal risk of the accuracy being influenced ?? |

I'm a big fan of "if it ain't broke...". I, also have an RRA Elite CAR-4 and am being very cautious about what add ons/changes I am making. IMHO, any weight you save by fluting will be negated with all the dodads that folks tend to hang on afterwards. I just posted the results of my first full day at the range. It was windy and I was not there for a "one hole" contest. I didn't waste a lot of time with fine tuning my sight picture since my eyes don't have that feature much, anymore.  ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=16&t=262248 But, I had fun!
