Airedale Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 MY local P&G received a S&W AR15 in 5.45x39 yesterday. I was tempted with the ammo price but passed. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waxman Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 According to the scuttlebutt on ar-15.com These Model 1 sales barrels, are not chrome lined, and some have had issues with them with the mildly corrosive ammo. Of which most 5.45 x 39 ammo is. Just what i heard. BTW, your mailbox is full Howard. was wondering where i am on your list. Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSMITH Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 I had a real roller coaster ride with Model 1 Sales a couple years ago, they took care of me but I'd rather try another outfit if they are out there and I DEFINITELY want a chrome lined barrel in a 5.45... Dave, mags are going out as fast as I can get them out, please continue to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLM Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Dave, mags are going out as fast as I can get them out, please continue to be patient. OT... When can I get in line for this fall Howard? I've still got that "project" sitting patiently waiting, hahaha! Take care and I hope things at work are returning more to normal. back On Topic... I don't know squat about barrels but maybe you could get it chrome lined? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken hebert Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Model 1 Sales = in my past expierence. I went with a S&W upper and accessorized to suit my needs. Yes, it is a 16" carbine and I'd rather a 18" rifle length, but beggars can't be choosers. Running Bulgarian surplus through it, accuracy is maybe 2MOA. Side note: so far absolutely no luck with any other hammer spring other than the orange tinted one that S&W provides. USGI is a no-go, and the JP was a definate bust with not even hardly a mark on those diamond-like primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I would like to build a top end in 5.45 for an AR. I know that there is an option with S&W, Model 1 sales plus Olypmic Arms. Anyone selling just the barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irq23 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 http://www.ar15barrels.com/ These guys probably do. They seem to chamber AR barrels in everything. Lots of abnormal AR calibers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
