Right here I believe: https://ballisticadvantage.com/16-in...rn-barrel.html

Yeah, those aren't the same barrel. You can zoom in on the ones for sale at PA and see that they are marked differently as well.

Yeah I think it may be a typo on primary arms website. Pretty sure it's 4150, I have never seen a4140 BA barrel but it's possible it was an oem barrel overstock or something

Duh! I was focused on the CMV and getting ready to explain that 4150V (which I figured BA called it) was the same as 4150CMV; I didn't even notice you were talking 4150 vs. 4140.
I compared the pics on the BA site with what was on the PA and thought they were the same. I hope the 4140 is a typo, but, dang, they did it twice.
I'm planning to sell the rifles I'll be using these on, I doubt someone who buys them from me at a gun show would ever realize any difference.

Run away from bear creek, they are the same junk under a different name. anyone who can offer a "full feature ar15" for under $500 needs to be looked at with extreme skepticism.
