I'm planning a build based on the Munition Works Fixie LT. I'm using a G&P as a base that uses the tapered fitting for the outer barrel which already limits my options. The tricky part is that the magpul handguard I want to use requires a barrel with a mid length gas system in order to fit (yes I know there's a carbine length version of the same handguard, I prefer the look of the longer one).

I've found a barrel that looks like it would work for a mid length but it's hard to confirm without just buying a selection of barrels and seeing what fits.

Has anyone used this particular barrel before or have you found another one that definitely has the mid-length gas system? If I can't find on I have a 10.5 with a carbine length gas system that I'll just chop and add the length to.

Another option is get a used traditional g&p upper , they do pop up from time to time.

Isn't the Fixie LT a 14.5" barrel, though?

Yeah. Trouble is basically all 14.5 barrels have the shorter gas system since that's what the military rifles use. I was going to find a 3" barrel extension to stick on the end. From what I've found there are almost no outer barrels set for a mid length gas system since it's a civilian thing which most cloners aren't interested in

 
Have you used this website before? 

Please let me know if you are successful with the shipping, they have lots of items i'm interested in 
I haven't but I think my dad did a few years ago. It was a couple of sets of receivers, outer barrels and gearboxes. No full rifle but they were held up in customs and he got a call from them making sure they weren't gun parts
