barrels for AR15 kits

Recommended Posts

Im building a AR15 kit gun right now and while im getting the extra money on the side to order the kit parts, I dont know which kit has the better barrel. Right now im looking at DPMS kit which would require more assembly that uses a Wilson barrel or a JT Distributing kit that requires less assembly and has a Shaw barrel i dont know which is the better barrel and would like some help on the matter

I think most of the kits from the various parts places come with Wilson barrels. I seem to remember some stuff on ar15.com about Shaw barrels not being accurate but that could have been the shooter. I've found that the guns I've put together with Wilson barrels will shoot an inch or a little better.

Just got an Olympic Arms, Broach Cut, 1 in 8 twist, 16 inch barrel for a customer a few weeks back and it shoots tiny groups with 55 to 75 grain bullets. I think this is the best barrel buy for the money that I am aware of at this time.

Best to all
