EricW Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) Where's the best source for chrome-lined barrels for an AR. I know Bushwhacker makes them, but who else does? Anyone have a source they're willing to reveal for low-mileage chrome-lined barrels. Reader's Notes: I don't shoot 3-Gun. I don't care if my rifle shoots sub-1/4 MOA. 1 to 1.5 MOA is all I'm looking for here. I don't care what David Tubb or any other "expert" thinks about a chrome-lined barrel's suitability for competition. Nor do I care what *your* opinion is on whether a chrome-lined barrel is suitable for competition. Just so we're clear, all I'm looking for is a source of quality, chrome-lined barrels with a standard .750 profile at the muzzle. If this thread turns into another religious holy-war, would a moderator be so kind as to lock it or nuke it altogether. Thanks!

EricW Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 Alrighty then. I'd better price out the platinum lining lest I lose the arms race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I don't know if you consider $180-$200 cheap, but Armalite is known for quality chrome bbls and they offer a couple of choices: http://www.armalite.com/sales/catalog/comp.../223barrels.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) I've worked with the folks at Del-Ton a lot. They're a local DPMS distributor and support the local FOP and shooting. GREAT people too. They have Wilson chrome lined barrels. Rich ETA: Model 1 Sales has chrome lined barrels too. When I get back, I'll be shootin' the hell out of my current shorty barrel just to replace it with one of their 16" SS 1:8 fluted barrels. Mostly 'cause I think it'll look cool.

lrsealey Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Try cmmginc.com. Not too cheap but a good source and you can buy complete and stripped barrels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
