Ballistic Advantage barrel
Love their barrels. Great quality and they always work well Highly recomend
USBA 11.5” Modern Series barrel
I wished there were MORE detailed info AND pictures as this barrel does NOT come dimpled for set screws nor can it accommodate pinning. Had I known this, I would’ve passed. Kinda disappointed with CS also as I emailed them immediately to discuss returning it and so far they’ve blown me off.
