Anyone use any of the 10.5" Shadow Ops barrels? I am looking at getting into a semi inexpensive 300 pistol build and was going to give one a try.

Let me know!

I believe that company went tits up.

I have no experience with them, but the name "Shadow Ops" speaks volumes.

The current owner (Jim Silvester) that ousted the original owner (Paul Russ) is a flaming douchebag and a two-time Obama voter. He deliberately ran the company into the ground because he's an anti-gun libtard.

I have one of the barrels, and it's fine. The product is good, but current management is not. If you already have the barrel, don't hesitate to build something with it. But if not, don't give Jim your business.

Third party shop has them available, 10.5" 300 AAC for 80$. I may spend more just to not have their name. Thanks gents.

I have a Shadow lower and barrel on my pistol.  Excellent quality.  Why would someone with an investment in a company run it into the ground?  It seems like Russ was the incompetent one and he's out now.  You may guess how someone voted but unless you were in the booth when he pulled the handle both times...
