      I don't think anyone will have a range report on the 18" just yet. They were only shipped out to us yesterday. There are reports of range results from the other Group Buy lengths posted elsewhere in this forum.

            I may be interested in one. Just deciding between 18" or 16"
            If you take a look at the 20" thread you can see the calculations that spit out the numbers from the weight of BFT's 16".

            BFT's 16" weighs 1.92 lbs. or 1 lbs. 14.72 oz.

            The 18" should come in at 2.11 lbs. or 2 lbs. 1.72 oz.
            The 20" should come in at 2.29 lbs. or 2 lbs. 4.71 oz.
            The 12" should come in at 1.55 lbs. or 1 lbs. 8.73 oz.
            Actual as-received weight of the 18", including the 2 red end-caps: 2 lb 2.1 oz, so Vascar you're right on the money!

                      Came home and my kids surprised me with a package from BFT. Will open later, after cleaning my ice fishing haul.

                        I can’t take credit for the weights, someone else calculated what they would weigh. I just remembered seeing the post and thought I’d share. My memory is a way better than my math skills and usually my memory sucks.

                        Great looking barrel, I can’t wait to assemble my upper!

                          4 oz lighter than the 18" 6.8 SPC mid-length SPR barrel it's replacing.

                              Here is what I finished putting together tonight I awoke from a nap to find this sitting by my seat on the couch. Let’s say I ate dinner like a starved puppy! BTW the photo uploads interface sucks, took me at least fifteen minutes to get it the right shape, pixel, and size to be able upload. Guess I’ll start just linking photos from now on to save time.

                              Post note- thanks for the suggestions. But using IPad. I am aware of how to do it and still a two step process. Just takes time when it should be automatic. Flickr is easier. Not to mention that the size constraints make it 8moossible to see any detail.
