Great lightweight pencil barrel, perfect for my sub 5lb build. I am very satisfied
Surprisingly good barrel especially given the price. Looks great, no machine marks, and very lightweight- only being slightly heavier than advertised (19.5oz vs 19.2oz). Overall I am very happy with this barrel and it is the perfect addition to my sub 5lb build that I am working on. If I build another ar in the future I will definitely buy this barrel again.

Great Light Barrel. Perfect for a WWSD build.
The barrel was 19.2 oz just as the description says. I cleaned it, then built a slick side upper for a WWSD project. The exterior finish was OK. The inside of the barrel was treated with a rust inhibitor that requires some solvent and cleaning. Put the upper on a KE Arms KP15. Added a S&J Hardware Linear comp. Added a 2 moa Riton red dot to keep the rifle light. My first time at the range confirmed this barrel was a shooter. I would buy it again.
