I have been told they are treated SS probably melonite but I've not even seen one yet. I do tend to listen to those that actually own them than those that just hate Mark LaRue.
See if I ever pass along another sale...
I certainly didn't know $199 was overpriced for an MOA guaranteed light weight barrel, who knew?
Dead horse I know... but if you KNOW they are SS why won't they just say it.
Or say proprietary or SS treated by a method similar to X but we won't divulge etc...
I"m always leery when the answer to a customers question is a smart azz remark
That being said if I had need of a tube right then I'd have tried one too.
