Hello all,

Wilson Chrome Moly chrome Lined Barrel
Tango Down Foregrip
MagPul MAID Grip with Spare Bolt/Firing Pin
Magpul metal Curved Trigger Guard
Aimpoint M2 w/ Comp II M68 QD A.R.M.S. Mount

One Piece Gas Ring
D Fender “O ring”
Badger Ordnance Charging Handle Catch
RRA Star Burst Safety

Nice.

I’ve always been curious…is the barrel of a Gov’t Model rifle light or heavy underneath the handguards?

Thanks.

I believe I was told when I purchased mine that it is a Medium Weight Wilson Chrome Lined chrome molly…I just sold a colt with a “pencil Barrel” and it definitely not that animal.

If interested in the Government Model here is an article on the rifle…
