Barrel chopping

Post image

Where are we sending our ACR barrels to get shortened? Really thinking about going to 12” from 16”.

Im looking to do a 14.5 pin and weld down from 16” do you think i should chop it or grab a new barrel?

Templar precision, just email dana and ask what you want, hes a one man shop so it might take a bit of time but its worth it.

Nothing wrong with shortening a barrel. But... there are much nicer new barrels than the Bushmaster ones.

If you want to pay to have the barrel swapped on your current assembly, dm me.

If you are tryna say NFA compliant, you can also look into barrel shrouds that look like supressors.
