[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 518440, member: 24284"] First, at least an inch is lost on the muzzle end because of lapping. Second, ATF measures barrel length 'from the bolt face to the muzzle'(or end of permanently attached muzzle 'device'). If you wanted a barrel that would finish to 27" that is what you should have asked for, one that would [I]finish[/I] to 27". Lately, many are ordering components without knowing [I]what[/I] they are ordering. [/QUOTE]
