I think what vicious_cb is asking is if this barrel was purchased from Forward Controls Design, as they received a run of barrels that did not have the updated gas port diameter. Jim stated that he had a run of barrels that the gas port dimensions got missed on QC and that they would be available under the pretense that they did not have the correct gas port. These particular barrels will run with the LMT enhanced BCG, unlike the barrels with the correct dimensions. Hodge's standard barrels are spec'd to run with a nitride coated BCG and a standard carbine spring with an H or H2 buffer and they get real finicky when you tinker with buffer types (A5) and BCG's.
