i just checked on both......the BAR is still being made and both do come in wood and look great...but 243 or bigger.....i tried.....thats all i can think of guys....i cant think of any other guns that arent military that are semi and in 223.....you can probally have a fine walnut stock made for a military firearm and have it deeply blued and all prettied up for you and have a pretty sweet looking rifle.....
