I got one... The original $165 price was to good to pass up.
FYI...the Gas Port is .063 PLGS ( and a very snug fit , as per my pin gauges )
It came packaged in the FN bag with their cage code.
I am concerned the gas port is to small.
Anyone care to weigh in / comment on the gas port size ?......... What size "should" it be to reliably run supers and subs , unsuppressed.
Also... the PA description says ....
"The barrel is designed to be extremely durable and reliable with a high-strength cold hammer forged stainless steel construction and a black manganese phosphate finish. This barrel is chambered in .300 Blackout with a 1:8 twist rate and 5/8x24 threaded barrel for optimal performance and functionality. It boasts a chrome lined chamber and bore to extend the barrel’s service life and ensure reliable chambering and extraction"
CHF Stainless Steel barrel with a manganese phosphate finish and a chrome lined chamber and bore ?
Is all that a common thing ? CL on a SS bore ?
