    WOW,
    very nice, I am waiting on a CMMG, and am excited for a BCM, and this is just great! Glad to see more LW barrels on the market, do we have a price or place to buy these? I have a feeling that it is easier to get a Centurion from retailers than direct, or atleast it is damn hard to get a MK12 from them.

    Wow, this would make a very interesting "recce-ish" build.

    Thanks for the heads-up, SMGLee, I have been looking forward to doing a lightweight middy upper.

    Thanks for the additional info, Monty, and stay safe!

    Two followup questions.

    Diameter under handguards? (sorry if I missed it, re-read the thread and didn't see it)
    Weight of 16" mid lightweight barrel after chopping and re-threading at 14.5"?

    A follow to Rob's 14.5 question...
    Since the first batch of 14.5 middys are to be cut down from 16's, how significant will the loss in tapering be compared to the "factory" 16 or 12 which I assume are rifled with the same preset taper measurement at the end?
    Also, I see on another site that CA barrel crowns are both chamfered and recessed with the chrome extending all the way out to the entire recessed surface (this particular feature I really like). How are the 14.5 middys' re-crowning finished? Are they re-chromed to come out just like the factory crowns or just phosphated?
