Details

This barrel is made of a proprietary blend of Hammer forged chrome molly vanadium made by FN that is referred to as “Machine Gun Steel” by virtue of its use in FN’s M249 and M240 weapons.   The hammer forging process work hardens the steel, making it more durable.  In addition, the chrome process for the bore allows for a lining almost twice as thick as a standard M16 for enhanced durability.  Chambered in 300 AAC, with a 1/8 twist, M4 barrel extension, and a carbine-length gas system.   The  barrel has an M4A1 profile under the handguards for better heat management and is Mil-spec phosphate coated, High Pressure tested and Magnetic Particle inspected.

Choose from a bare barrel, or an assembly which includes a barrel nut and pinned front sight base.
