    Bloody awesome mate.

    I was asking around about lubrication and everyone seemed to have a different answer all the way from Don't Lube Ever all the way through to Soak the whole AR in heavy oil overnight every time you look at it.

    Hi Guys looking for a good 20inch or 16inch barrel, I want an accurate barrel but I am not allowed a match grade and I need a A2 front post its for service rifle. Who makes the best non-SS barrels do you think?

    @Herbmiester has got some nice Criterion AR15 barrels - these are button rifled, chrome lined moly steel, and shoot good

    If it is only for service rifle I'd just get one of the cheap DPMS HBAR's off Brownells.

    Brownells is a probable source, dont really mind spending a little more if its for a decent barrel.

    If its <$100 I'd allow 2 weeks. Note however that the postage will add up. Looking at my recent bills buying under $100USd means the postage is a big % of the final bill. So I am going to go for just under $300US per order so its under $00NZ and be prepared to wait for the parts (in which case 4~6weeks).

    There is one on TM dunno if it would suit you, its Gunworks selling it, so should be OK,

    AR15 .750" low profile Gas Block | Trade Me

    Ask them if they can drill it to make it adjustable?

    Hmm thoughts on "slapping" a rifle length gas system (20inch barrel) upper onto a M4 ex-16inch carbine lower? So is it likely that the gentler gas impulse will cause issues like a short stroke? Would there be an "easy fix" like swapping out the buffer for a lighter one?

    Make sure the feed ramp cuts in the receiver match the feed ramp cuts on the barrel extension.
