I have a new Bushmaster A3 16" flattop in .308. I'm new to AR type rifles. I want to change to a 24" heavy barrel, and I have no idea what's involved. Are all or some of the manufactuer barrels interchangeable, or some of them? Do I need parts other than a barrel? Obviously a gas block for the heavier barrel, but anything else? How difficult is it to float the barrel, and what hand guard should I use? Is this a job for the smith, or can someone who is semi-competent do the job? Any answers to the questions I didn't ask are greatly appreciated, too!
Thanks
Thom
