As much of a PITA as changing that tube is, you make it without cost in mind, imo!

My uneducated guess is that the 28" is just a hunting variant with a vent rib barrel. Makes sense as other anti-drone shotguns are usually that. I dug around on google and it is indeed the vent rib barrel.

The most interesting thing for me was "...28" anti-drone."

My Dad finally made it up to my place and we're having a Father's week.

The gym is paying off too. Looking good!

Yeah… not sure how much difference an extra 10” length will really make, I mean how far away are the drones they are shooting at that a 28” barrel will really make a big difference? Why not just put a turkey choke on an 18.5” barrel? *shrug*

I've sent off a sample for PVD using a Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coating. Looks like a really nice tech to me, costs a bit more per piece, but I believe M4 owners would appreciate the premium finish it provides. It will be the same colour as this example here. TiAlN is a coating used on cutting inserts, end mills, and drill bits, intended to resist high heat (not applicable here), give extreme hardness, provide lubricity and corrosion protection. Should pretty much last a lifetime...
