Description
After the disbandment of the Titans a lot of good units were taken out of service. Most were sold off or junked, waiting for Neo-Zeon scavengers to find or steal them, others were spared but doomed to be experimented on and tested, never to be mass produced again. Others however managed to escape the shadow of the Titans, the Asshimar remained in service for quite a while until being replaced. Other Titan units lived under a different name and shell.

Due to the sheer number of Barzams, their outrageous performance, and low maintenance costs the Earth Federation had most of the surviving Barzams modified into "Bar-GM's. Not many modifications were made, the Bar-GM is essentially the Barzam with a GM like shell. The Bar-GM sometimes went by the serial number RGM-87 when listed publicly, often to try and pass it off as a GM III variant. This was mostly to distance the Earth Federation from the negative appearance and reputation the Titan machines brought with them while still allowing them to field effective mobile suits used by them.

The Bar-GM saw it's most use in the first Neo-Zeon War. After the Battle of Gryps and the disbandment of the Titans, the AEUG was almost totally annihilated and the Earth Federation was left little time and little resources to prepare for the war. The Bar-GMs were deployed as quickly as they could be 'modified'. They saw combat alongside the GM III on many of the war fronts. One Bar-GM came into the hands of Ex-Titan pilot Zap Rowsendower. Somewhat reminiscent of his GM Custom in the days before he joined the Titans, Rowsendower had his Bar-GM painted in a similar color scheme.

A few other minor customizations were made but outside of that he was very satisfied with the machine as he had piloted a regular Barzam during the Gryps Conflict. Rowsendower and his Bar-GM Custom saw service aboard the Argama Class vessel "White Castle" he was quickly assigned as Captain over the mobile suit teams.
