All those barrels are k&p cut rifled. I just started buying a few blanks to keep on hand for myself and friends. Then I bought more, and more. I try to keep common lengths, caliber and twist rates on hand, examples, .224 1-7.5 6mm 7.5 twist, 6.5 mm 7.5 and 8 twist, 7mm 1-8 twist, .308 1-8, 1-8.5, 1-9, 1-10, .338 1-8, 1-9. Then there's. .375 and .458, .510 stuff too. I try to keep one to 6 of each around. I go through the most .308 8.5 twist so I keep some 28" and 33" long the .300 norma improved is really common. I love to shoot, enjoy machining my stuff and do a bunch for friends. Got a bunch of machines in the shop to support my other business and honbies. As far as dealing with the public, I don't do any, but I'll sell a barrel off here and there if someone's in a hurry. There's a few times a year where i can't spend any time messing with it, spring planting season anf fall harvest season i have about zero spare time if the farm equipment needs to be running.

As it sits in the photo it is 11.85 pounds. The carbon fiber handguard is much larger than the OEM metal one, but yields the same weight. The full length 0 MOA top rail weighs the same as the OEM 30MOA rail. Overall no weight savings, but better functionality of the rifle.
#1 The ability to accept an integral suppressor up to about 1.75" OD allowing the use of a full length handguard with sub 22' Barrels and the ability to run magnum cans with a 22" barrel, something that cant be done with the regular M2.
#2 More space with M lock nuts making barrel swaps much easier
#3 A more rigid handguard, Carbon fiber has better tensile strength compared to Aluminum.
#4 holding the rifle is much nice, fits in your hand better and does not absorb the cold weather.

I’m might be dreaming, but do you think that handguard and rail can shipped to Canada? I have a M2 and I would buy it for the cold weather aspect alone.
I have bugged you about this already so I apologize... But this solves such a major issue on my comp gun I am going to poke the bear again and see if you have any updates on release date?
