Barrel scaring
4/4/2012 4:54:56 AM
I have an 18" middy I was looking at swapping the a2 FSB for a low profile to accommodate a FF 12" handguard/rail. The main thing holding me back is the scaring left after it is gone, how do you guys hide/deal with this on your barrels?

What's it scared of?
I just use a black sharpie, but I'm nowhere near as anal about some guys on here.
Case in point: I recently sold a 1911 to a buddy of mine that I met through the site. He took it out that evening after work and ran a couple hundred rounds through it. When I woke up that evening, he had texted me. "Next time I see you, remind me to kick your ass. I'm going to have to clean that fucking Kimber before I can clean it."

This.
There are several low pro gas blocks that are designed long to hide those pin holes.
