I actually asked him if the 1/8 barrel was available on any model and he said "no".

I told him that I had purchased a 15T in March, and at that time the website stated that it came with a 1/8 5R barrel, but I got a 1/9 barrel. I also told him that the website still lists the T as having the 1/8 5R barrel and asked if that barrel was available and if so how could I get one...
