[QUOTE="cstunes, post: 1067083, member: 86943"] Typically a "pinned" barrel is referring to the flash hider being permanently affixed (pinned) to the barrel due to length. If you picked up a 14.5" barrel it would have a pinned flash hider to ensure it never had a length less than 16". Lots of gas blocks tend to have roll pins holding them on but they are still removable. Ditch the mil spec trigger and you will be way happy with how it is to shoot. Personally, I think that is the first mod any AR should get. If you shoot prone much you'll likely find that you want the scope further forward. Bench shooting you might be comfortable with it where it is but it appears rather rearward. If you plan to shoot prone at all I would get set up and locate the scope while prone before sighting it in. I made the mistake once........mine was too far back but usable on the bench. Went prone and it was way too far back to get comfortable and had to start over. Nice looking rig. [/QUOTE]
