"These carbine barrels are hammer forged for Spike’s by FN."

If his shop has a lot of issues and other stuff that needs to be worked out after they build an AR-15 do yourself a favor and don't buy one from that shop.

Brownells is not going to buy rejected barrels.....lol neither is Spikes

I think smoke has been blown out somebody's nether regions.

Makes sense for FN to make AR-15 barrels and parts. They made them along with Colt for the military. If FN doesn't have the contract anymore why let machinery sit around and rust with the civilian AR-15 market booming?

They have a contract to make the M240L machine gun for the DoD.
