Does RRA offer a fluted barrel?

If I get a RRA complete upper will it accept a flutted BUSHMASTER barrel in the future?  If so will I be required to check headspace?  If headspace is out of spec how would I have it corrected?

Thanks

I can't comment on RRA but I have two rifles outfitted with Wilson Combat's 16" flutted barrels. Both shoot great.

They are expensive though.

hopefully someone from the "uppers barrels and more" forum will wander over here to give us a definite answer but AFAIK RRA does offer fluted or I've at least seen fluted RRA rifles come from dealers on this board.  I suppose they could have been aftermarket barrels installed into RRA rifles or even RRA barrels fluted by the dealer- ADCO can and will do this.

You can easily change out the barrel on the upper to any other barrel you wish.  You should not have to worry about headspace.  From what I understand, the headspacing is done when a barrel extension and barrel are mated together.  As long as you don't do any milling or machining to the barrel or barrel extension you should be ok.

No.

We flute all our own barrels. RRA does not offer this service.
