survivalshop Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 OK guys what do you suggest on barrels.Rainer Arms OR Si Defence? WHY?Who makes there barrel blanks ? Fulton Armory has two forms of Krieger Criterion barrels in 18". Have you looked at them ? The Krieger barrels are a proven shooter, but that's just me .Also I am for sure going with an 18" Barrel, so my question is. Does an 18" take a mid-lenght gas tube?Some do & some don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Called Si and they said there blanks are made from someone local. They said they have used Krieger but not anymore.Rainer Arms said a company called chillin makes there blanks.So ................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mjolnir Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Also I am for sure going with an 18" Barrel, so my question is. Does an 18" take a mid-lenght gas tube?Gas tube length will be determined by what extension you choose on the Rainier barrel ... Armalite or DPMS?

6132expert Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Right, I understand that, but the question is will I be useing a mid lenght or rifle length tube with a 18 inch barrel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Depends on who's bbl. you buy & what spec it is or you want . I know Fulton Armory's are all rifle length .I have seen 18" bbl's in rifle ,mid, & carbine lengths . You can have one made any way you want .Just contact the bbl. manufacturer of your choice.

6132expert Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 OK, I understand now. It all has to do with where the manuf. machines the bbl at FOR the gas block.Got it <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
