Great Barrel For All Your Needs
I purchased this barrel for my S&W M&P Sport 3 as it had a barrel with no threading, I wanted to get a barrel with as close specs as the oem barrel that comes in the sport 3. This barrel was the closest I've found. Purchased it, and got it fitted along with a muzzle brake. This is my first experience with an AR15 but i can say, the ACCURACY of it is amazing. All shots are consistent, groupings are magnificent. Great barrel for what you're paying for. It is a bit heavy on the end of the barrel side, but It does not bother me as the weight helps me control the rifle a little better.

I purchased this after a review I saw on the faxon site. I have one other faxon barrel and love it. Best of both worlds for a barrel fast shipping and a military/first responder discount
