18.6” Gunner for this guy.

If I wanted a heavy profile I’m just as likely to get a 20”.

 

[Lungorthin]

option A for me

 

[CHEMMY]

18.6 pencil .308 and 6.5 grendel for sure.

Faxon would do a special run for us Canadians, they just need enough of an order to make it happen.

I really like their heavy fluted barrels, just don't want a 20" barrel on this setup.

I'm already looking to have this one brought in https://faxonfirearms.com/limited-edition-match-series-18-heavy-fluted-223-wylde-5r-chameleon-pvd/ . So if there is a order going out I'd be in for that

I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on an 18.6 flame fluted match if you were to bring some in. Sorry for the old thread bump.

I couldn't find any dealers in Canada who were up for working out a special run with Faxon, they (Faxon) will make whatever you want but nothing moves until they receive the specs and a purchase order for minimum of 50 barrels. I was hoping someone in Canada would take interest and work with other dealers/Faxon to make it happen but at this point it's a dead venture.

In the meantime, I went with a 20" Heavy Fluted and look forward to trying it out when my upper is ready.

Cost for a Faxon is my biggest concern. If I'm forced to pay $400-500 after taxes and shipping, I'll spend the extra money to buy something better.
