[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Spike's barrel in a Kuehl upper?

Posted: 10/10/2007 11:03:37 AM EDT

I have a Kuehl .22lr upper. I would like to buy a replacement barrel for it from Spike's Tactical. Can anyone tell me whether the Spike's barrel is a direct replacement for the Kuehl barrel?

By the way, I called Spikes and the person with whom I spoke couldn't tell me whether their barrel would fit on the Kuehl upper.

Thanks.

The upper shouldn't be any different. Both use the standard AR upper. The modifications required for the ciener to operate correctly may be different as well as the breach adapter.

It will fit
I have seen spikes upper/barrel and he uses the same barrel extension that rick uses.

Your saying that a Spikes barrel will work with one of rick's modifed cieners and that one of rick's barrel's will work with a modifed ciener from spikes tac.?

Quoted:
Can someone with either a spike's or Khuel setup measure the diameter of the breech where it slides into the modified chamber adapter? Conversely, measure the diameter of the hole in chamber adapter when the kit is out of the upper.

From pictures, it looks to be half an inch.

i'll try to measure my spikes tomorrow for ya with a digital caliper

Kuehl chamber adapter ID: approximately .497" (I'm not good with a dial caliper but you've got a good eye - it's about .5")

YMMV
