palmetto state armory had stag 6.8 16" M4 uppers with 5 mags for $525, they were in stock on sat night when my buddy ordered one. Another good source would be Bison Armory, they specalize in 6.8 uppers and seem to get great reviews and have good prices, although their uppers only come in 16",18", and 20" lengths.  If you want alot of info on 6.8's check out 68forums.com

I went with a CMMG barrel for my last build, I have to say itis the best shooting one I have had.

The CMMG barrel out shoots any of the others I have had..

Thanks...yeah i see the Palmetto Stag upper is 1:11 and might could send it to ADCO to cut to 14.5. That Bison website is hard to find stuff on there.
I will look at the 68forums too. Thanks for the input.

There is a thread on Discuusion section that makes me want to stay away from CMMG....sounds bad.

Check out Wilson Combat.  I just bought a 16" medium contour 6.8 barrel for about $200 shipped.  It's a thing of beauty.
