after all the help i was getting, i called to find answers and this is what i got:

alumalite barrels: 17" weight: 24 oz.
tac sol threaded barrel: 16" weight: 15 oz.

i chose the tac sol in matte od green with threaded end and matte black comp.

found a good deal: $190 for the barrel
comp. was $40 both prices inc. shipping.

now i need to find a good folding stock.......:Blasting_

Tac-sol's have a thin chrome-moly liner with a sporter chamber. They are not renown for their accuracy, average of 1" groups at 50yds with good ammo. Friend of mine has one here that he shoots at our range, has rung it out to its max, just a good plinking barrel at best.

Aluma-lite barrels have a thick German Lothar stainless liner, also with a sporter chamber but come with accuracy claims of 1/2" at 50yds from the manufacturer (Dino L.). The rigidity of the thicker stainless liner and the straightness of it (.0001" from muzzle to breach) is going to be MUCH better than the Tac-Sol's.

If your going to "can it" the diff is not an issue BTW where did you find a threaded TACSOL for $180

I thought I saw a post by on another forum that Dennis from Mizzou Mule has a special on "slightly blemished" OD green tac sol barrels for around $180.
