    As far as I can tell. That bushy upper fits snug as a bug on my SBR lower. Kinda nice. I'm less than 24 hours away from zeroing and shooting it. I'll know more soon... but everything looks good so far.

    I got to shoot the Aero 10.5 FSB yesterday. It runs really nice. I ran it on an A5 H4 buffered lower, and a standard A5 buffered lower. Not a huge perceived recoil difference between the two. The barrel cycles reasonably smooth. Not BCM 14.5 middy smooth, but that's too much to ask for a 10.5. For an unsuppressed FSB barrel, I'm happy with it's gassing.

    I shot fixed carry handle irons on a 100 yard steel, and it held about a 2" group. For whatever reason, non of the SBRs shot for shit on paper yesterday when using an ACOG and another magnified optic. Our best results were with irons.

    Thanks for the feedback. I should have this setup in hand by next week. I'll report back when it happens.

    If you spend much time around the guys who really, really know their craft, and who truly live this stuff, you tend to find that they are very soft-spoken and modest -- almost to the extreme. To my mind, that is a model worthy of emulation

    Yeah. I was worried that I'd have buyers remorse. But I like the barrel, and I'm going to run the hell out of it.

    Is this a markm stamp of approval on Aero barrels?

    I've only shot it once... maybe 150 rounds, but it seems like it'll be pretty good. Most people, however, will want to run a can on their shorty. So a smaller port would be better.

    Aero is running a special on the 10.5 w/FSB.

    Those 14.5 and 16 car barrels with the .0635 port are looking appetizing for a chop down to 10.X"-11.X" suppressed project. Think I might give one a go. Especially if Markm likes the barrels

    You guys are the experts, but I've used the MicroMoa baby govnah blocks on large port barrels with success. It won't help if you're planning to use the FSB, but if you're going to run a low profile gas block anyway, it's worth looking at. Just drill the port in the block out to the size you want. Might save some hassle and some money.
