I think she does sell them to the public when OEM or military orders slow down and allow excess production.

They weren't up to snuff and he didn't know why. After waiting a few more weeks with no signs of getting my barrel I canceled the order.

There's more to the story but I will just say that Mike Rock was very nice and sincere throughout the whole process. I really hated that it didn't work out because I really wanted a Rock 6mm 5R tube for my project. Chit happens I guess.


I wonder if I should order my 6mm else where?

Not according to their website, but I could be wrong.

I talked to Mike last week. He just asks that you call after 11:00 Central.
