6132expert Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 OK guys what do you suggest on barrels.Rainer Arms OR Si Defence? WHY?Also I am for sure going with an 18" Barrel, so my question is. Does an 18" take a mid-lenght gas tube?
survivalshop Posted March 8, 2011 Report 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
6132expert Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report 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 ................
6132expert Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 Yeah thats what they said, I could hardly understand the guy, but you know what Im talkin about.So are they a good brand?
Mjolnir Posted March 9, 2011 Report 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?
imschur Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Well if it isnt my long lost brother :banana:
Mjolnir Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Well if it isnt my long lost brother :banana:Thought I would throw in my $2NT ... wait a minute, I'm back in the States; make that $.02. <lmao>
Mjolnir Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 OK, so I am building a DPMS.DPMS gas systems use standard AR15 gas tube lengths. <thumbsup>
6132expert Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report 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?
survivalshop Posted March 10, 2011 Report 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 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>
