Last I asked, it was a no for kino, but they said they would consider it.
Monty,
Could you provide some info as to which barrels are cut?

Thanks. I had posted this in the other Centurion thread and someone just posted the same thing. The reason I want the Centurion is the profile, I don't want to turn it down for the FSB.
Well, how much would it affect things turning down that section? Any idea? Think I'll notice as much of a difference in accuracy when it gets hot as I would between a 14.5" standard and lightweight profile?
I've only owned be lightweight barrel, so I'm not too familiar with how it affects shorter barrels. I have a 10.5" that is a solid shooter and want the 12.5" for a couple reasons, one being the accuracy potential. I don't want to give that up though.
I think Monty could provide the best information, but it is my understanding that the thinner wall at the muzzle will open up faster with heat, so in theory you might lose a little accuracy sooner under rapid fire, but I do not think it would affect accuracy, atleast not initially. It would be a lightweight profile, so it would be comparable.
I have great results with a pencil weight DD, so I imagine the Centurion would do well. I think you just need to figure out your priorities, or wait and beg for a factory Centurion Kino :D
Thanks man.
I'm not opposed to begging. :D
Wow! Looks a hell of a lot like my spikes fn m249 barrel i got for $199(introductory price)stripped. Should be a heck of a barrel
