HOPSTER Wrote:I am currently trying to decide which of 3 barrels (From Mark at PF) to buy:
The 20" Bartlein 720 HBAR or either of the two offered bull barrels (920 profile) from either Bartlein or Lilja.
Mark had suggested that since I would like longer than 20", a fluted bull barrel in either 22 or 24 " would be best.
There is a minimal price difference between the 20" HBAR profile and the heavy bull barrels.
I don't know yet what the weight difference will be.
If I go with a fluted (8 flutes) bull barrel, I will go for the 22 " length.
24" would look and feel too long for my Lancer Rifle+ length handguard.
If anyone has tried any of these barrels please chime in.
Looking to place my order Friday am.
Thanks,
Dan
My 2 cents; I Love my 20 inch Bartlein HBAR on my Neptune V PF upper. I would save the 170 bucks for the 8 row fluting of the bull barrel and go with the 20 inch Bartlein, and get it 2 weeks sooner. I also am impressed with the PF muzzle break and their gas block that looks killer with the 5 grooves. I have those two added items on my Liberty group buy barrel build with camo wood laminate Lucid furniture. You may see them both in my profile in my Liberty build photo album.
