Not as much demand for 11.5 inch uppers so they're going to be more expensive to produce (since they're produced in smaller batches).

I'm most interested in BCM finally offering a 12.5" BFH. I've never understood why 12.5" is the sole barrel length between 11.5" and 16" that they don't offer in BFH.
I'd be all over a BFH 12.5" KMR upper...
My guess is they won't be making the 11.5" barrels in BFH ELW(-F), so their non-BFH versions are just not on sale like the other length barreled uppers (which have been on sale for a month, and now even come with free BCGs); the button-rifled won't sell as much once the new BFH ELW-F uppers hit the market.
But that's just a guess, since I'm not a marketer/sales-statistician, I don't play one on TV, and I didn't stay in a holiday inn express last night.
ETA: cold/bore's probably more correct than me. I'm sure they don't make as many, so that would increase the price.
As of right now, we're stuck with buying the KMR upper group if we want a 14.5" ELW-F upper receiver?
Are you wanting just the barrel?

No, I'd like to buy the upper receiver group minus a rail. All I'd have to do is essentially knock out a few pins and slap a Geissele barrel nut on.
IN STOCK NOW!
Of course I am short on funds this month..... School clothes shouldn't be such a priority...

I'm really interested in just the barrel. My M16 at work has a 12.5 DD CHF barrel on it with just shy of 14k rounds through it.
If I had my way, I'd get a complete upper for my SBR and the non fluted ELW barrel for the work gun. Hell, maybe when I have the cash, the BFH version will be offered for my M16...
