I'm sure that you are correct that many are purchasing either complete rifles or complete uppers rather than swapping out barrels. At present I really don't have an AR that I'm willing to swap the barrel on so if I wanted to try out one of these chamberings I'd probably either buy a complete upper or have one of the many semi-custom builders (many of whom show up at gun shows) assemble a complete upper to my specifications.
You may have seen my previous message where I stated that I'd come close to ordering a complete upper in .25-45. The hangup was when I asked myself what I'd do with it once the novelty wore off... |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: True, but we seem to be seeing more factory rifles already chambered for these cartridges. I stood next to a guy and chatted with him on Friday as he waited for his paperwork to be completed--he had just purchased a new AR chambered in .300 ACC Blackout. This tells me that it isn't just guys changing out their existing .223s anymore. They want rifles from the factory in different calibers. |
