Ordered new glass for my 12.5" so the old SWFA 1-4 got bumped down to one of my 10.3" guns. Now if only the gov shutdown would end so I could F1 a new lower and ditch this Seekins.

@swamperator
Finally got the barrel in from Black River Tactical. I used the beveled spacer in the Surefire Warcomp kit and then began timing it with the Precision Armament Accuwasher kit. Nice little kit, contains a series of precision washers each different width and you time your muzzle device. Only took me two test fits and found one that would both time the warcomp and give it the necessary clearance to clear. The fit is super tight, as tight as it can be and still allow the suppressor to mount fully with the collar in the unlocked position. Not quite mini recce, I give you, the short recce:  20190114_144749 by B A, on Flickr

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By swamperator: just started looking for my 14" barrel. Never heard of Black River before today, have you used them before? I like the profile, I have no idea what the hell they're talking about with the BRT gas drive (different gas port diameter that they named?), nitrided, and the price isn't bad. I'd be interested to hear how you feel about yours. I previously had a Ballistic Advantage Hansen 14in carbine gas with a Geissele mk14 rail. I sold that once I got into SBRs. Then the black Friday sale happened and I saw the green mk16 and had to have it lol. I really need to get this out to the range soon. Hopefully this week sometime. |

12.5 guys - Anyone have experience with both the Daniel Defense and Criterion barrels?
One one hand, the CHF of the DD is a huge turn on, whereas the thin gov profile isn’t, which is making me consider the hybrid contour Criterion. Does either one shoot any better or worse than the other? |

The DD will probably shoot VERY well.
The criterion will likely shoot better. Edit: Here's a video--albeit from Criterion's channel, so understand there "may" be a marketing slant

Okay, I made a couple changes to my 12.5. Installed Triarc's new 11.5' Trilok rail. Thought it was a good choice since I have the Triarc barrel.. And I have always liked the looks of the wedgelock rails. This one has a steel QD insert. I wasn't sure that it was possible, but this is actually thinner than the G Mk14 I had, just barely, like a mm but it is. Put a magpul bipod attachment on the rail. Im just waiting on my harris to show up. This may be the final config for a while.
