My latest build is using a barrel from Special Ops Tactical. The barrel has what they call an "angled gas port" or AGP.

I just got back from the range and I'm impressed with how the gun felt.
I ran 120 rounds of IMI and PMC X-Tac M855 ammo through it with no failures. The outside temp right now is 62 degrees.
It was great to shoot. I can really tell the difference between it and my midlength 556. All milspec parts were used.
Parts list:
Anderson MFG. Lightweight Sport upper
AAC NiB BCG
Ranier Raptor charging handle
Magpul MBUS
Special Ops Tactical 16" AGP barrel with rifle gas
MI 15" G3 SSK-Series handguard
Q Cherry Bomb muzzle brake
Noveske N4 lower
CMC flat single stage trigger - 3.5 lb
MOE + grip
CTR stock
JP SCS Gen 2
A lot of people told me that it would not run without a silencer but it runs great!
