| what is the advantage and disadvantage of have a chrome lined barrel and chamber vs. a reg barrel and chamber |
This never comes up.  Jeez.... other than the gun used in Heat..... I dont know of a topic that is covered more often. http://groups.msn.com/TheMarylandAR15ShootersSite/barrelfaq.msnw http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=218458 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=218177 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=12&t=203305 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=12&t=214623 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=213134 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=213749 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=4&t=209575 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=208955 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=208691 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=208140 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=4&t=207345 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=206902 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=206801 And yes... I am just tooo damned lazy to hot link them.  Do newbies not have the search function available to them??? I honestly dont know. |

I haven't So back to the subject: the consensus is that for a civilian's rifle, a chrome lined bore is not essential, but if you have the option, go for it. You'll save time in cleaning, the barrel may not wear out as quickly, and so on... |

Well.... using search capabilities for paid members is bogus in my opinion.... because newbies need it MOST! I can understand users who dont register at all... and just lurk.... but damn....... you should have to pay money to get the basic info that keeps these questions from being re-asked all the damn time. |
I'm kind of frustrated by the relatively few options available to a "member" who's not a "Team Member." And while I try to use the search, I find that either a) I have to wait 376 seconds for the next public search, or b) I can't search on the fields I want (like usernames so I can find out wha El Roto said last week), or c and worst of all) I can't look back more than 30 days-especially when most of the troubleshooting FAQ entries happened long before that. To be blunt, the search capabilities open to non-paying members bite. And (staying on topic!) I'm now looking at, in the distant future, building either an A2 or A4 20" upper. Are chrome lined barrels available in only certain profiles, or can I find heavy, pencil, A2 etc. profiles with chrome linings? |
