What does having a barrel done cost?
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
my price is $165 for the bolt head, the bbl and the recoil lug, plus return shipping,
and 3% for using a credit card.
more than my last bbl but still reasonable.
Wow! That is a great price for quality Nitriding service!
yes i hing ip om a company that said $300 plus.
my first was about 125 delivered
Yup! $300 is vey common for high quality Nitriding. $180 is “good”. $125 for the service I know Houston Unlim. delivers is outstanding! Like I said, they were already on my short list. After hearing that price, they just moved up to #1 on my list!
Have been a an a huge fan of Nitriding for some years now. Every AR I’ve built in the last 5 years(more than a couple) have had their barrels, flash hiders & every part of the gas system Nitrided! On top of that, every single one shot sub moa..
(do not get me started on ars. small group from my ar10 is 0.116 at 100, a TARGET rifle, my ar15's are crap..hanging right at 0.2 at 100 again TARGET rifle.)
i built target ar's for over 20 years
I’m curious Mike, I’m 40yo, and of course haven’t built them as long as you. But I started right about 2005. Now, as I remember that was the infancy in building AR’s & AK’s for non professionals. And people who have only been in the AR game for even 5-10 years don’t know what it was like. There simply wasn’t the plethora of parts suppliers, like today. But what I am curious with, is how did you build any AR during the Clinton AWB?
