DD LW barrels now shipping w/ .750 under the FSB
I just opened up my 14.5" CHF DD carbine gas LW barrel w/ FSB.
This is my second one, though I bought the last one 2-3 years ago. On Daniel defenses website it is listed as .625, on the web site I bought it from it is listed as .625. The picture on the DD box shows no step up. It is however very much .750.
I posted it in this forum because otherwise I don't think people would care, or if anything they would be happy to have a more standard size. (edit to add: I originally posted this in the vintage forum, mods must have moved it here)
It effects me, or us, because I was going to use it for a 654 clone. At this point I am considering using it anyway. I have waited over 18 months for this barrel to be available again, it seems DD had been turning out almost exclusively mid-length gassed 14.5" barrels.
Just wanted give everyone a heads up in case they had planned on using one for some sort of car15 clone.
