Where did you find the barrel? I am looking for one as well as a .458 pistol barrel. I have the rifle, and its a fun thumper but I want a shorty!

Funny found one at Davidson and ordered it. Now need a bolt and enlarged port. Might sell an AR upper and get the upper receiver and bolt then.

Bear Creek has the BCGs in stock, and on sale now for even less than I bought mine for.
