Potential interest in custom made 18.5 inch CORE barrels from Criterion Barrels

[aldy86]

I’d be interested in a 18.5” with mid length gas and a pinned front sight post installed.

Anything come of this?

Nope. See post 21.

How about being in batches of barrels from the USA manufacturers.
Few dozen 12" 10-22, some 14" 870's.
10" Derya 22 etc

All would likely sell

Don’t astec sell criterion barrels?

They do, but I don't think they sell one of custom length barrels. I bought a fulton armoury (made by criterion) 20 inch chrome lined AR15 barrel from them.

Unless these are intermediate gas length, I’d rather take the 20 inch rifle gas length.

I recently talked with Criterion Barrels regarding custom 18.5 inch barrels for us Canadians. They said they would be interested in making a batch of at least a 100 for us. Trying to gauge the interest on this idea since if there's enough interest hopefully TNA can purchase a batch. Thoughts?

I would be up for a 18.5" barrel that somewhat matches the profile of a Douglas 18" barrel used in the Mk12 Mod 0.
1 in 7in RH twist chambered in 5.56mm not that g** a** .223 wylde.
