Great Price, Good Barrel
This thing is fantastic for the price. Looks great, and shoots 10x better than the mil spec barrel. Goes in the gun as it should. The finish work is a lot better than I thought it would be for the price too. (The flash hider is not all the way screwed on in my photos because I didn’t shim it yet, it threads all the way on just fine).

Heavy Barrel and they are not kidding! It is dimpled for those that care.
USLooks Amazing
Well made and looks great. Completed my first build nicely. Complete the entire assemble of this AR from AR15Discounts. Thank you!
USOMG what a barrel!
More than excellent. Only had a 25yrd range to test in. 55 gr. Frontier ammo was MOA. 62 gr. Aguila was a little bigger than 1/2 MOA. with all holes touching. I did a rapid fire scratch test with 15 rounds of mixed 223 and 556 junk ammo I had laying around. It shot 1.5 MOA. Different grains and all. Overall for a new barrel with under 250 rounds. This is a heck of a great deal
USNBS barrel
This is a fun one to look at. Took it to the range and put 50rds through it so far. The weight of the barrel balances my AR quite well. Looks really good on my setup.
