Update
Barrels are starting to ship weekly.
I never stamped the barrels BXC, but you can tell mine for others by the throating job on the chambers. They handle hollow points.

When I ran the Mini bolts, I was asked not to stamp them BXC, but the heavy bolts are easy to tell.

I never installed a semi feed ramp on my uzi, and don't intend to. But a barrel that handles hollow points would be nice to have. Any left? Standard full size uzi smg.

Handling hollow points is a secret bonus I wasn't aware of VERY NICE!

Looking forward to my pair of barrels.!

Just an idea... But I think a full size UZI SMG spec barrel with an integrated 3 lug, basically a duplicate of what Richard used to make, and the same length as his but with chrome lining would be perfection as far as full sized barrels go.
Sure, we can shorten and thread a chrome lined barrel for the 3 lug adapter, but an integrated 3 lug is far more desirable and cutting the end off a chrome lined barrel leaves a ragged edge of the chrome lining that is prone to flaking over time versus a barrel that was chrome lined at it's finished length, because it has it's chrome lining extending past the muzzle and chamber to eliminate the possibility of flaking.

Since I'm making a "wish list", I'd also like to see an FBI length barrel for the .22 conversion kits, with a threaded muzzle.

Thank you for doing this run Troy as always excellent work on your end.

Ya we moved and my machines are in place but need leveled and since they are down might as well do a oil change in the enco 13x40 and degrease all of the machines before final setup & usage.

Be a bit though, like spring time but that's not far off and these were bought as spares since odd cals in FS & and mini/micro barrels are now super hard to source.
Should probably ordered some 45 aarp barrels too, maybe next run.

Anyone that can't do their own threading needs to hook up with amphibian for that service. Along with his 3 lug stuff too if that's yer thing.

Pretty sure state law prohibits BarrelXchange from threading them.

Read the 1st post bt BXC in this thread advertised no threading.
Pretty sure it's the new IL state gun laws and probably not a bad idea not to thread them since other states have laws banning threaded barrels.
To many different laws across the states for any one person to keep track of.

Sold a MG42 parts kit on GB last Nov.
Went to a few different websites that sell kits to see where they were not shipping to due to laws.
7 states can not have parts kits purchased/sent in.
If a retailer won't ship then I won't either.
I was kinda shocked that that many states now have laws on parts imorted over their lines.
So I can see from a legal standpoint of CYA why BXC doesn't do the threading.
