...I ordered a barrel from CMMG today. It won't ship until May.

It uses carbine gas, so I'm going to look for a suitable adj gas block...and M-Lock handguard.

Have not yet seen any brass or reloading dies yet, but I'm sure it's coming.

I noticed MGM is saying they will have Contender barrels in April. smile

Wonder if JES could do it since he does .33 caliber and up?

Will he do something with a gas port?

Well I'd imagine if you provide a barrel with a gas port why not? Just thinking out of the box.

It'll be easier and cheaper to just start with a 35 cal barrel blank instead of having a smaller barrel rebored.

I guess it depends on how he cuts the rifling. I could see a single point cutter getting snagged on a gas port.
