I got my barrel! After literally weeks of "research" and hunting I became convinced that I should snatch the FIRST barrel that I could get my dirty paws on. I finally tracked one I could live with down. Its a DPMS with M4 profile/feedramps. 16 inch. 1 in 9" Twist. 5.56mm. Factory front sight base installed. I have no idea if its parkerized under the FSB (havent received it yet) but I have no intention of ever finding out, so... There ya go! I will post pics as soon as it comes in.

Oh and I decided to go with a Magpul MOE handguard. Black. Carbine. Got it local today. I'll take a pic with the barrel.

Will look for a delta ring kit tomorrow.
