Sharpshooter
Hey INGO,
I am building my first AR-15, (I assembled an AR pistol for my brother in .300), and I am having a hard time figuring out which barrel I want. I know I want mid-length with an A2 FSB. I have no idea on material of construction, barrel profile or twist rate. My use for the gun will be plinking/range toy, SHTF patrol rifle, and I want to take a carbine class or two with it.
Current build specs:
Matched Anderson upper/lower
Spikes premium lower parts kit
Spikes premium upper parts kit
DSA low friction mil-spec buffer tube
DSA buffer and spring
no-name cheap m4 stock (was a take-off from another gun that I got for free)
MOE grip
I found this barrel in the AIM surplus flyer today Ballistic Advantage 16 in. 5.56 Government Profile Midlength Barrel, Modern Series w/ FSB
Thoughts on this one or another. PLEASE HELP INGO SCHOOL ME ON THE AR-15
