Here is a barrel from Centurion Arms
16inch mid length, mid weight.
cold hammer forged
M4 feed ramp
1:7 twist
Double Chrome lined
made by the same people that makes Noveske’s hammer forged barrels
The barrel looks real nice. Could you tell me what your impressions are of it? At one point I was going to order a complete upper, but decided against it in favor of training. Now I’m in the position of trying to get all of the parts to build one so I can acutually have a rifle to take to classes. So any info you have would be greatly appreciated.
Does anybody know if they are going to make a M-4 profile barrel?
checked their web sight and I dont see any thing listed yet.
Operation parts had a couple of those mid-length urx’s with integral front sight in stock. Note that these are not standard mid-length, i.e. 9 or so inches, it is based off the sr-25 carbine length around 11" and will require a lowpro gas block to use it with this barrel. This is the setup I’d use.
SMGLee,
what is the weight of that barrel?
Cheers,
hayes
Chen,
You really want our new Rifle Length URX with the Integral Flip Front sight - it will fit the Middy Gas system, whereas you need to cut our Midlength URX to get it to fit with a MidLenght Gas Armalite dimensioned system.
*You really want Monty to build our Midlength gas system
he said it’s mid length, mid weight
edit: CONTOUR: NOVESKE MEDIUM WEIGHT: 2.LBS 1.9OZ
ok, I see your point… KAC’s mid length is longer than the Armalite version…understood.
The barrels weight is 1 lb 15.4oz
Kevin I would love to hear about the differences in your mid-length the only issues I could see is that it is not a standard so the gas tubes would be a “custom” item.
I will try to have the spec on the website soon but I’m VERY happy to have these barrels and they are finally in stock.
Thanks
Monty
My claws were on a 16" KAC 7.62 “battle” carbine earlier today… I would guess the KAC gas tube is an inch longer than the Armalite/RRA type. This would probably provide for a more idealized system, pressure wise.
Kev… How about you guys kick some gas tubes Grinch’s way…!! I personally would like to see this gas tube in a 18" 5.56
I am pretty sure we can arrange some tubes and the dimensions sent your way!
I’m going to email him today, I’ll let him know that there’s an interest for them.
Thank you
Hope its 14.5 inch and works with my KAC handgaurd.
Which company makes these barrels for Noveske and Centurion?
so when am I actually going to be able to buy one of those?
Thanks,
Cameron
I heard FN.
You heard wrong.
Actually, scratch that. It could be, I didn’t notice that these were the double chromed barrels. Carry on.
The stainless barrels are pac-nor. I couldn’t find confirmation on what the N4 barrels were.
