    I had a 10.5 BA modern barrel I liked for the price. Good CS, fast shipping. Just shot it for function unfortunately.

    Weapon Outfitters has their 16" Hanson for $205. I think it includes gas block.

    The only thing I wish Aero/BA would do, is dimple their barrels for set screws.

    Is that because the melonite makes it difficult to do your own dimpling?

    Ya I watch nz's videos and that's certainly one way to dimple on the cheap. For anyone a little more serious I think Rainer's dimple jigs for 30$ make a lot of sense..


    Here's mine mocked up on a Rainer barrel who surprisingly didn't have dimples either. Easy fix though, the jig centers itself from the gas port and positions the spots to be dimpled underneath. If there is interest I could bang out a how to fairly quickly, terrible iPad photos and all

    I have a 16" Hanson series in for testing right now, that I've been impressed with for a $245 barrel that includes a pinned low-profile gas block.

    It's a 416 SS barrel with middy gas system and 5.56 NATO chamber. I wasn't expecting it to shoot MOA or better, but it did shoot consistently under 1.5MOA (using both 5-shot and 10-shot groups).

    My review will be up in the next week or so.
