Maybe we have reached a critical mass of awareness of the GB? I dunno, but we've been on a roll the last several days.
Now...Why can't we go 1:8 again? 1:8 is great for people who shoot 69s and 77s...but it'll work for the super light / short bullets too. It's also faxon's standard twist.

Because the group buy was organized on arfcom where more people will want 1/7 than 1/8.

Awesome. If we get to 49 and we're stuck for more than 3 days, put me down for a second bbl. I don't really need a second one...but if we can't get the final person, I'll do what needs to be done.

Just got off the phone with Nathan. Faxon is going to be offering these as a regular SKU soon so I'm canceling the group buy.

Nope, the market has slowed so they're able to focus on expanding their offerings. This is one of the options that got approved for manufacture. |

Faxon already has something very similar on the market.
http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=XFXB105CGB&name=FAXON+FIREARMS+Socom+10.5%22+5.56%2f.223+Caliber+4150+CMV+Steel+AR+Barrel&groupid=6479 This is why I was holding out on getting in on the GB. it is 2.7oz heavier and doesn't have a dimple. I would buy one if the pencil barrels come out with our specs for the same price as these.
glad you guys are picking up on this one Nathan. I think it will be a better seller than the Socom since it's lighter and will have a dimple 
I will wait to see how it comes out. Was debating the your 10.5 Gov/Socom with the pinned GB from Aimsurplus when they get them back in stock. |
