I'm primarily looking for a barrel, would consider an upper.

Something between 7 and 14", preferably around 10-12" long.

If I can get a chambered barrel blank, I can do the rest of the work myself.

I'd consider an upper for a good price.

I'd also consider a longer barrel with a gas port in the pistol location or no gas port.

I have a pistol lower that I made from a 0% that this is going on, no SBR stuff here. Also, it'll be for supersonic primarily.

Thanks,
Jon

check out http://www.ar15barrels.com/inventory.shtml (http://www.ar15barrels.com/inventory.shtml) he has a 12" 300-221 barrel listed and 4 barrel stubs that could max out at 11.5" to 12".
I have never bought from that site before and am not affiliated with it at all but the guys at AR15.com have good things to say regarding the owner.
Hope this helps

Thanks, thats a good link. I'll consider those. $200 is more than I want to spend on a barrel at this time. What I'm really hoping to find is something that needs some work that I can get cheap.

I'll e-mail him and ask about the ones toward the bottom of the page.

Thanks,
Jon

There is rumor that that guy is waaay long in delivering and at times not even taking orders.

If JFettig doesn't take this I will. Being Christmas and all I have pm'ed him and will give him another day to hop on it.

No problem, glad to help! My wife will appreciate me not getting knee deep into another project with my 25/223 or 6/223 on the horizon!

Just a quick update. I got that barrel from crowminator. I think I'm set for parts for the time being.
