Re: Best AR Barrel?
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Mil.Dot</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Nice barrels by all accounts, but usually only 16"+ (not sure if the OP will go to 16). I seriously considered having Adco cut and thread one for a 14.5, but decided against it due to the added expense. </div></div>
With all 14.5" Noveske barrels running over $400, you could buy the AR15 performance barrel, have it cut down, rethreaded and perm attached muzzle device for less. Since you would still have to pay for the muzzle device and permanent attaching of muzzle device, you would save about $150 with the AR15 Performance barrel.
Noveske barrel:
$400 + $30 (perm attach at Adco) = $430
AR15 Performance:
$190 + $30 (perm attach at Adco) + $65 (cut/rethread) = $285
It does require a little more leg work on the OP's part but would save him money. It won't carry the Noveske name so I guess it would be up to him to decide how much he wants to pay for it.
