older model??

Can someone tell me if this 112bvss listed on gunbroker is an older version without the fluted barrel (or has the original barrel been swapped for another). Many thanks

There were some non fluted 223 SS factory bbl's out there a few yrs ago...but they were 24"..

Make sure you want the LA series...if you wanted to swap out to a to another caliber you'll need a longer mag box...or use a s/shot adapter....unless you keep it a 223 caliber family....otherwise get a SA 12 series....the Low Profile stocks are alot nicer too..
