Got a good one
Good experience. Picked this light weight phosphate barrel up on sale for around $50. The phosphate and grime line look great. Everything in spec. Chamber was good. Gas port journal measured .748. Not the tightest, not the loosest. The gas port pinned gauged at .077. For a midlength system on a 16” barrel, that’s good. Geissele uses .076. Using a blue Sprinco and H1 buffer. Unsuppressed with an A2 birdcage, feels good. Good ejection and all in all a great barrel for around $50. Will buy again.

Haven’t gotten around to building the rifle I bought the barrel for. It does appear to be exactly as described.
USGreat Deal. Don't miss out.
At this price i got 1 and it's a Shooter I got 100 rounds through mine my gunsmith actually love the barrel it's headed very good and gas block was drilled perfectly.
USThe one I got is made by DTI (Del-Ton). Very decent quality.
I'm impressed with this barrel's quality for the price. The quality IS there, and for the price I paid -- which was a great discounted price, I couldn't be more happy. That being said, the one they sent me was made by DTI (Del-Ton). I believe Del-Ton is now out of business, so these may be their remaining stock AR-15 discounts purchased (don't know for sure). Perfect for a low cost build, making use of all my other leftover parts. The Parkerized finish is basic mil-spec, however a little bit of oil and the finish looks 1000% better, and I think IS a real quality finish, and very nice looking after oiling it's exterior. The quality of the feed ramps, barrel extension and the lugs are very high quality. I don't see any roughness, or machine chatter marks like you do with other low-cost barrels. They are very nicely machined, and I'll take the chance on these USA made barrels, even though Del-Ton is now out of business. I may even stock up on more of these while they are on sale. This one is: Stamped DTI (Del-Ton), matte gray in color (which darkens when oiled) parkerized finish, 1:9 twist, M4 feed ramps, 5.56 chamber, mid-length gas system, 0.750" gas journal size, non-dimpled. I'm a happy camper! Highly recommended for the price, assuming you also get a DTI brand barrel.
USGreat all around
Nicely finished barrel that is more accurate than I am.
