I took the chance, not a whole lot of choice when it comes to buying a FN FAL barrel. Maybe save a little on a surplus barrel, but then the savings spent on gas system parts to match. One that came in mine is STG58, same as DS sells. I had the idea 'put in your cart' meant they had it on hand, put it in a box and send it to you. Barrel next to it on the page said 'out of stock'. No its some new form of in stock, like going to wal mart for corn flakes and they have the corn, just have to make the flakes. Yea the parts for the barrel are all there, but they still have to assemble them.
Funny I have made 2 orders to midway, 1st 3 days after placing the order at DS arms. That one arrived, I placed another order a week later, its already here. Still waiting on DS arms to put that in stock barrel in a box and ship it.
