Fn barrels

Yep, IRG has the FN barrels on their US website, go to the sort by manufacturers and FNH USA and then it's a few pages deep. The length is hidden in the description so you have to click on a few before you get the length you want. I think it's 20" first then down in the listed order.

I was looking into the 20" possibly for the future if I go with a SLR receiver set; although still hoping Wolverine is looking into the Daniel Defense S2W barrels in 18.6" configuration.

get the 20" cut down to 18"6 then have the smith mill in flash hiding prongs and ports.... keeps oal down to what a 16" would look like with a muzzle device.

Totally a reasonable idea; Except that the barrel is chrome lined... Cutting a chrome lined barrel isn't a good idea as the chrome can chip off and even if it doesn't, it can weaken the bond to the steel and cause issues down the road... FN makes an 18" barrel so it's possible you could a custom run done to 18.6", although I don't know anybody that does integral flash hiders except Herron Arms.

If people are looking at getting Cold Hammer Forged barrels though; there is a company I found in the US that does cold hammer forged mil-b-11595e CMV barrel blanks. Sand Hammer Forging Inc. I've been thinking of giving them a shout and seeing if they're DDTC registered, and we could do a group buy and get IRG to import the batch. As 1 line item for export, even a third party import at 250 bucks isn't a big deal spread across 20 or 30 barrels. Then send em off to whatever barrel smith you want and have em turned down to your specs.
