bradders Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 It's been a long time returning, but I have finally found someone willing and competent enough to do the machining on the rear end of the BAR 22 barrels. And now that I have that out if the way I can finally get these back into production as there seems to be a demand for them The barrels are Sassen .22lr blanks and can be offered in any length up to 20" Still the best Happy days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryh Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Mark, Nice to see these available again! For anyone looking, these rifles just 'work' and being based on a true 'AR' platform feel, function, strip as a 'real' rifle. Out of interest what twist/no of grooves are you using or offering?

lapua Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Whats so special/difficult about the machining? Dont you do it yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted July 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 I wouldn't say there's anything truly special about it, but it needs to be done accurately. I don't have the capacity on my mill with its small rotary head to do it, bro would rather put it out to someone with that capacity, who knows what they're doing with NC machinery, is keen and enthusiastic, can fit it in to their production schedule, do it in a timely manner, at a reasonable cost, and more importantly has a RFD Ewen, price will be similar to a centre fire rifle, but I can't state exactly what as everyone wants something different, Starting prices around £1500 I reckon and lead time once barrel supply is established about 2-3 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangbangman Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Tidy, Mark. How much for just the "upper/barrelled-action" (what my plod call it), 13" barrel, threaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy W Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Mark, do they work with S&W Magazines? If so do they need an adaptor? Or do you recommend a specific Mag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted July 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Roy, Yes they take S@W mags as well as the usual CMMG/Black Dog types Ben, a basic lower assy is around £420, so an upper assy on its own would make up the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangbangman Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Thanks. The gun-money jar is empty at present so I'll have to get saving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy W Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Thanks, Was toying with an S&W but now thinking differently. Just need the FAC to arrive first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
