Thanks man. Awesome post. Might need to recalculate where my priorities are.

The profile is drool worthy! Nice work, Clint.
What is the hybrid crown like?
Typical AR barrels have a flat faced crown with a small 45 degree chamfer at the bore.
Target crowns often have the 11 degree face across the full face of the barrel, leaving a delicate sharp transition at the outer edge, or at the threads in the case of a threaded muzzle.
The BRT Hybrid Crown has a flat portion near the muzzle threads and a large 11 degree face at the bore.
This retains the accuracy benefits of the target crown, while making it more robust.

Clint, PM sent!
I'll be ordering one of these as soon as I find out what the original port is drilled to!
Looks like the KAC length intermediate tube is used?

I agree completely. I've been saying something similar ever since the KAC SR15 was introduced. But everyone freaks out because: "proprietary". That is somewhat understandable with the KAC system and the higher than average cost of KAC parts. Then Noveske came along with their intermediate system, but never really capitalized on it. A purpose designed, 16" intermediate has been a long overdue addition to the market.
I've also always thought that the 14.5 midlength was a shortcut to the 16" intermediate "feel". The concept is the same, balancing gas drive vs dwell time. The fact that you can pin a 14.5 to 16" OAL, overshadowed what I thought was it's real value. Being, a reliable and very soft shooting platform when properly gassed.
I'm very excited to see Clint bringing this to market, especially at a very reasonable cost and with 99% parts commonality.
