I appreciate the help Wash you helped me out big time!!!

well thank you for your blessing haha alright that all makes sense to me. I think the gas system is my biggest worry with the thing. I am doing my best to make sure all parts are going to fit together, but the gas system seems a little tricky to me to get it just right. I am thinking about using an adjustable block for it. It will never shoot reloaded ammo I'm sure. Is it worth the extra money to be able to adjust? Or the link you sent me had a barrel that comes with a gas block that is not adjustable...

And the gas tube for the 20'' is the rifle length tube and the 18'' is when it changes to the carbine length correct?

I do apologize Wash I thought I mentioned your post and looks like I'm the center of uranus here. The only question I have about those ones is that if it has a matte finish to it or not. I think we were trying to go with the stainless look to it instead of the matte finish... any idea?

Awesome thank you guys. I saw the one from Fulton armory that CBI has. The only problem is it is a little more than I really would like too pay of course haha and they offer the non-threaded muzzle which I am going for. Another thing id like to throw at you is what about cutting a 24'' down to 20''? If a gunsmith does it do you think it would ruin the ballistics? I'm not looking for a gun to shoot out to 600+. It is really for my brother and its the aesthetics of the barrel and really only shooting out to maybe 300 yards depending on how he feels that day haha Have you guys or know of someone that has cut down a barrel?

I am trying to figure out where to get a 20" stainless steel bull profiled barrel, .308 of course. I really do not want it fluted and dont want to buy a 24'' and have it cut down. idea h's the barrel I want, but in 24''... does anyone know who might make one for around the same price as the one midway has? It's 229.99 and back ordered. I am new to the .308 building and have a feeling that out of tock happens a lot, is his true?
