Its worth it. Too bad it is so much more expensive than the silencerco one.

 

[maansmit]

You'll be happier with it shorter. I'm dropping off the MPX barrel tomorrow to get it shortened, and I will put a 3 lug on it also.

For the bolt

This is lower than that, closer to ground level. It's about a 4" hole.

Some end treatment posts may have a hole in them for a cable to run as a brace

Are you googling guardrail posts?

It's gonna vary by the application and the labor. The MPX barrel is easily removable. An AR is a little tougher. I pulled the barrel tonight.

Just observing.

 

[KJQ6945]

Did you get yourself fed?

We probably have 8 different wood posts plus the same number of metal ones for various applications.

I should go to bed but I don't really want to.

I assume I will need to remove the barrel prior to taking it to be chopped

I'll have to get you a picture of what I'm talking about. It looks to me like an intentional breakaway, but thought I'd ask an expert.
