Short Carbon Fiber Barrels

I have not ran the Bartlein CF barrels, I’ve ran their steel though.

I have and do run, Proof CF and Proof Steel.

I am a recreational shooter at best, so keep that in mind. Others may be more qualified.

They are all fantastic barrels. The analysis you’re trying to do will end up causing paralysis by analysis.

Get a barrel you like and roll with it. Unless you’re putting thousands of rounds down range a year, or shooting in some unique use case, you won’t tell a difference. Maybe a few percentage points here or there but it’s going to be hard to tell behind the gun.

You can slice and dice this 100 different ways but at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what gear you run. If your skills are not up to par a gain twist barrel or 400 MB barrel is not going to seal the deal for you.

And, no matter what you pick, it will be lacking somewhere. There will always be a void. Sometimes it will do x better but lack in y. Vice versa.

Edit:

To the short barrel point, I would get whatever one you want or is in stock and go. I personally don’t think the brand of a barrel from Bartlein or Proof is going to make a difference. They will both be excellent.

AR Positional POI Shift Test

I've been really impressed with both of my LWRC DI's.

I bought them to be cheap ammo blasters but the 16" is very accurate, is Okay.. 1 MOA-ish.

I just had a custom Barrel nut Wrench made so I can swap barrels up to 1"

If anyone has ever used the LWRC Barrel nut Wrench you know that it is specifically contoured for the LWRC barrels only..

Thinking of swapping barrels in my 10.5" LWRC with a 11.5" 22 ARC

It took some custom brass spacers, but Andrew got the top cover set up on his FX DRS.

Again, I’m not sure the demand - with enough interest I could do a dedicated DRS version that wouldn’t need a spacer, but I can’t imagine too many of these are in the wild.

what color is this? looks great!

Send It vs SG Pulse

Just finished an ocular adapter for SG Pulse on TriggerCam 2.1 ,will shortly be availible once i make some stock , its a snap on fit so no adhesive used.

*two different fiber optic used on the prototype to test different diameters ,unlike sendit pulse does not have a led ladder there is no point in having 4 or left and right as they all glow in the same color ,was even considering using just one fiber ,short unobstructed fiber path might be most beneficial

Continuous scope ring slippage

Yeah, lapping rings don't happen much these days.

In the last 5 years, none of the people I spoke to at my local range had lapped rings.

And there is a good reason for that. Manufacturing is so much better than 30 years ago when lapping may have been needed. Haven’t lapped a ring in over 20 years and never saw a need especially with Seekins rings.

And I was laughing at his last line as it’s complete BS. Not that he called himself old.
