    Were L42 barrels free floated?

    Hey guys!

    Starting my L42 build and working on inletting a stock to fit the heavy barrel and I am wondering if these were fully floated or were they setup with pressure at the tip like standard rifles?

    Thanks!

    Jon

    The short answer is yes. They should float from the bearing at the reinforce forward.
