Is the CHF FN "machine gun steel" barrel worth the extra $. It is #399 w/o a BCG or charging handle. For comparison the SS 1/7 MLok upper wtih BCG, CH is only $300. The other flavor PSA offers is a chrome-moly barrel Nitride coated. It is $370 w/ a BCG, CH, and Magpul MBUS sights which I don't care about but the version without them is out of stock. It is a 1/7 twist.
So I guess out of the three options here for barrels what are people suggesting, the SS, Nitride or the CHF for the extra dollars. The various uppers they offer vary in price mostly depending on if it is a standard MLok or a pricier Geissele gas block and hand guard. The CHF is a 1/8 vs the other two are 1/7 twists.
I know I can watch their sales and probably wait a little bit and find whichever one is the better issued for a sale price as they seem to churn through them fairly quickly.
