[QUOTE="GBA1776, post: 1109077, member: 20522"] Ive heard of people doing this but why would you want to glue your barrel into the upper receiver? Is there some play in your barrel extension to receiver mating? The AR I built had a very tight fit, I almost had to force it to seat fully. That and a properly torqued barrel nut means there is absolutely no play whatsoever. I could see how glue would change barrel harmonics, but I dont know how you would control that, It seems completely hit or miss weather or not gluing a barrel would improve or worsen the harmonics. What did you use? I would think basically any glue you would use would melt and re harden as the barrel heated and cooled constantly changing any effects it might have. Oh and my new SWFA 3-15x42 should come in a few days so I should have a target to post this weekend for the MOA challenge [/QUOTE]
