Hey everyone, I’m wanting to start a new 6 ARC project and need help either finding an off the shelf barrel that will work or going with a custom spun up barrel which is what I’m leaning towards.
So my requirements are:
Rifle Length Gas System
Longer than 16.5”
I’ll be using a URX 3.1 13.5, spikes tapered gas block and OCM5. I’m not wanting to go with a 16” barrel and using a crazy amount of shims to reach the proper length for the OCM5, so I’ll need something I can get cut to around 16.3-16.5”
As I said, I’m leaning towards a custom spun barrel that way I can get exactly what I’m wanting and could go with a thick profile behind the gas block and add fluting behind the gas block to somewhat help with heat. I was looking at buying an X-Caliber barrel blank and sending it off. Are there any other recommendations? Thanks in advance!
