Their website seems to have gone away, but I know it was there just a month ago as I bought and received a barrel from them.

www.global-tactical.com

Anyone know what happened?

The website comes up but with no content on the page. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/wetidlerjr/Smilies/confused-smiley-013.gif

Yeah, that's what I mean. It was there a few weeks ago and as mentioned I ordered a 16" recon stainless barrel from them. Just went to see what was new on the site a few days ago and it's gone. thought it might be temporary but so far nothing new.

A quick google search revealed it as "closed" on yelp.com

ETA: I found a thread on TOS that didn't have a lot of details, but something about missing NFA items, FFL surrendered, etc...not good. It's a shame. I spent an afternoon with Denny in the back of the shop (which wasn't his as I understand it, he just owned the building, the storefront was run by someone else) a couple years back. He was a pretty cool guy.

If that is the case, then it is a shame.

The 16" recon barrel I got is a nicely done stainless barrel on a douglas blank with 1/7 twist, wylde chamber and is pretty light.

They had an 18" SPR style barrel listed that I was going back to look at as I thought it would make another nice option to consider along with Rainier and BCM.

Denny is a character and his class 3 safe was epic.....but shady shit happened from what I know.

That is too bad. He returned my voicemail one Saturday evening to answer a quick question and spent about 40 minutes talking. I learned more about the AR in that call than I did in my last armorers class.
