Hi guys,
Can you all please reccomend a 12.5" barrel. I've always shot18 and 24 inch barrels. While I'm sure what makes a 24 inch barrel shoot well also makes a 12 incher shoot well, I haven't bought a barrel in over 5 years, and there are a bunch of new barrel makers out there. I'm looking to build a light weight, all purpose gun.
Thanks all!

Rebby is running a group buy on Lilja barrels and he is offering a 12.5. Ballistic Advantage has a 12.5 Hansen stainless steel barrel. Odin Works has a 12 ultra light barrel. The Forum Group Buy Monster Barrels are manufactured by Green Mountain and should be available soon. Faxon sell a 12 6.5 Grendel barrel and Alexander Arms sell a 11.5 6.5 Grendel barrel.
Precision Firearms will make whatever length you want.

The best buy for your money, is to grab snarks upper. Its almost worth it for the billet upper, BCG and AGB alone. If you don't like the barrel or HG you can switch it out later and sell them. It will get you shooting the soonest (after you get a gas tube).
If you want to build things now, in these times, you need to start looking at uppers as items you can part out, because of various parts shortages.
