Hi everyone,

check out the barrel here:

We're just wondering if that is the same folks at Evolution Gun Works.

Thanks!

I don't believe so, I won a barrel by Evolution Inc. once at a match, it is the basis for my 20" iron gun. it shoots very well. they are from whitehorse Id. or something like that.

They are in Whitebird, Idaho, used to be located in Utah. Ed & LeAnn Woslum (sp?) are the owners. They used to hold a 3-gun match there and I believe still builds both bolt guns & semi-autos. I think he calls his place the Yellow Wolf Ranch, check the white pages for his phone number or go back seven or eight years worth of _Front Sight_ magazines; he used to run full page ads.

I've purchased one AR-15 barrel from them years ago and can't remember anything particualarly remarkable about it.

Two different outfits. EGW does not market AR barrels under their name. The first time I'd seen an Evolution barrel was about 13 years ago. A friend in Texas had one on his AR.

I think I found the 18" stainless steel barrel I've been looking for. It's from White Oak Armament.

Try this:

Then click on barrels and then scroll down to where it says Speical Purpose Rifle (SPR) Match Barrel.

Thanks for the replies.

I think I sent that info....

I'm kinda on sensory overload, with all these new AR options to know about and having gone to the NRA show on Friday.

I felt like a kid in a candy store. (no offense to anyone), but really like a kid w/ ADD in a candy store. I should have had a pedometer on, I bet I walked 5 miles in that place and still only got half way through.

If it was you Dan, then thanks.

Evolution USA and Evolution Gun Works (EGW) are 2 separate companies that have nothing whatsoever to do with each other. BTW - EGW does offer AR barrels.
