    It is an option on their barrels, and they pinned it on for me. It was complete with a sling swivel and front sight post as well. As the poster above mentioned, if you take a look at one of their in stock barrels you will see several add on options, one of which is an installed FSB, handguard cap and barrel nut assembly which is how I ordered my barrel.

    They were even nice enough to switch the standard (for a midlength) triangle handguard cap for a round cap as I knew ahead of time that I would be using the SL handguard which requires a round cap.

    I am considering a BA barrel in .308, preferably the Melonite/QPQ version, as well as their .308 BCG.
    So far, most of the feedback on their 5.56, .300BLK and 5.45 barrels seems to be positive, but I haven't seen anything specificall about the .308 or their BCGs.

    Thanks for the testing.

    I have the same barrel on an well (but I shaved the FSB for an ALG EMR). Can't wait to get it out and pull the trigger.

    My 18" noveske spr barrel doesn't shoot the hornady 75gr any better. Thanks for the review.
