    With that said, if the barrel is NOT either polished or shot BEFORE melonite, you can basically make the burrs in the barrel pretty permanent (where as they would normally be removed or covered with chrome or shooting).


    We just had two BCM SS barrels done. I will be testing some theories soon. If I am right, you could basically get the accuracy of a SS barrel without any of the wear issues normally associated with SS barrels.

    Barrel and GB's are in hand. Waiting on the Lancer carbon fiber HG and their new forged lower that I ordered at shot to come in before I can start the build. Don't really know for certain, but hopefully soon.

    This is a sweet gun. I checked one out today at local gun store. They got in a dark earth one while I was there. I'm gonna have them order me a black one as I wasn't to crazy about the dark earth. It was total $1075 out the door. Cant wait to get it. It will be my first AR-15 was gonna get the Sport till I ran across this. NICE is all I have to say.

    That's exciting to hear since I'm thinking that the VTAC version is likely to be in my final 3 rifles to chose between. So hopefully they will be out soon as well. Once you get yours please do report back on the accuracy of the barrel and reliability of the platform.

    For that sticker I would rather buy a Colt SP6920MP for under $1200.

    I would love to buy a colt but all that I have seen are carbine gas and one of my first desires is for it to be midlength.
