Never owned that one, but that's a pretty smokin' deal for a chrome lined barrel that meets a pretty good set of specs.

My opinion only as I have no direct experience with DSA, however at that price I'd say it is a flip of the coin whether or not the barrel is put together properly and QC'd.

Plus, its 14.5" so not worth SBRing in my view and I'm against pin and weld because it is simply a pain in the arse. (Unless of course you're handier than I with a welder.)

Spec's are one thing, mfg and QC are another.............Hard pass from me, but wouldn't call you an idiot for buying one depending on intended use.

I love the 14.5 FSB barrels. That's tempting, but I already grabbed two of the SOCOM overruns from last year.
