DieselPower, You are not correct specifically this barrel is NOT polygonal. Please at a minimum understand why this type of rifling is called ''Polygonal''
EDIT after reading that link you posted I see that you actually AGREE WITH ME.
spdrcr; Yup I do have a life and basically only hit up Calguns with the iphone when dropping a duce or bored with nothing to do (rare).
Its just one of those things that no matter how clear I can get you just wont understand. Most response with technical info or pictures support what I am saying. Its just a follow the leader mentality.
In short I cant obviously win a dumb argument with stupidity or with an idiot as they have an unfair advantage.
Really I am not a huge ar15 fan, I have the barrel, never used will trade or sale at MSRP/Value.Last edited by systems; 05-18-2013, 12:57 AM.Why get butt hurt over a thread, get a life instead!

welll
now I found it...
Look at the web page, I posted a screen snip shot as I believe they will change it.
Weird the description of both barrels are exactly the same the only difference between both barrels description is that one is listed as ‘’5R polygonal’’ and the other ‘’5 Land polygonal’’
It used to not be this way, now they are listing it as 5r.
Weird completely supports what I have been saying.

Pictures of the barrel I have would not help, I could post pictures of anything and say its that Rainer arms barrel I have it would not stop the trolling.Why get butt hurt over a thread, get a life instead!

I'm going to ask you a question now, because at first glance I was a little confused as well. I'm sitting right here next to my 8.5 Inch rainier arms polygonal rifled barrel. I see three little tiny grooves. I am positive this is why you think it is a button rifled barrel. Now here is the question, do you honestly think those three little grooves which if they were all by themselves would be enough to stabilize the bullet? Because quite frankly, if you were right that none of these barrels were polygonal, then none of these barrels would work. Why do you choose to ignore the fact that the barrel does have an actual polygonal shape. and tomorrow i will slug it to prove it to you.now I found it...

You have your facts right, I believe that is because you maybe the first person to reply that actually owns a RA Polygonal Barrel.I'm going to ask you a question now, because at first glance I was a little confused as well.

My barrel has Enfield with 45 Degree angles at the downward; Its a 5R barrel they called Polygonal but now call 5r as of some time in May.
If you are saying that you have ''3'' of something than I believe you actually do have a polygonal barrel, 3 land. Its all in the details most people post a response and do not realize how dumb they sound but you just saying that proved the opposite, ''3''.
Button pulled is a method, that is too say its not button pulled rifling, that would be like if I were to say my SR9 barrel has hand lapped rifling.
Most of the responses I post are in response to misinformation from people posting empty opinion. Haven't had time for CG if anyone wants the RA barrel they can have it at cost I have a solid rep for delivering fast. I have been working on this;

Well... You could take a picture of your car and not of the barrel you whined aboutOriginally posted by elSquidLike Yoda said: "Buy. Or buy not. There is no whine."

-- MichaelOriginally posted by PardiniObviously, they just threw that shat out there for Calgunners to proof read and expose the loopholes. Now that we have done our part, they will go back and tighten it up and make our fruking airtight.Comment

Probably doesn't even have a Ranier Arms barrel to take a picture of...Comment

They used to call it polygonal but after it became an issue they renamed it ‘’5r’’ sometime in may after I posted about it so yeah most of these responses from people are mute points...
Never got any responses from ra,
only one post in this thread that was not answering the issue but a blanket on returns, however I never had any response for my requests to return (several requests)
It’s really pointless, those who know really don’t say much about this thread. And a few folks above fit this category.
Most other people will see something and it for no reason insults them, here, then they google some crud, read something that was wrong and to rebuke what they don't like they regurgitate the misinformation here.
So no matter what facts or points I make another person will always come along and argue it for no real reason. These people are mainly the ar15 fanboy gun show crap buying fools who believe the, fads of ar15 parts or sales pitches of vendors. They post others read it and repost; the circle of misinformation or the ‘’circlejerk’’ in which the misinformation circles the consumer and well you know...
Only one person has responded who actually owns a Polygonal RA barrel. Most, not all but most others have been a follow the leader mentality.




Now I know its hard to see but the cuts are enfield, tiny but sharp angles clost to 90 degrees and very crisp, FLAT top I tried to get closer but the picture gets blurry, I know many people with this rifling who believe they own a polygonal barrel will jump on it and say its polygonal but that is because they just don't know any better so try to ignore those.
Yes I need to prof read but none the less the point is made, if pointing out grammatical errors is one of your points your just proving one of mineLast edited by systems; 07-14-2013, 5:59 PM.Why get butt hurt over a thread, get a life instead!
