New carbine barrel

[Smokin7s]

I finally shot out my factory Colt 1:7 after what seems like a million rounds. I need a suggestion for a new barrel I want to stay that carbine profile and length really, anybody have experience with a good replacement?

Why carbine gas system?

Forget carbine length gas!!!

Noveske has some really excellent hammer forged, double chrome lined barrels made to their specs by F-N. You can get a 13.7" medium profile plus 14.5" in two different profiles (light and medium), all with mid-length gas system. Of course, pinning and welding a muzzle device in place will be required to give you 16+".

If you don't feel like doing the pin and weld, they also offer a medium contour 16" HFCL with mid-length gas system.

I run dead air key mounts, how do you go about pinning and welding just take it to a gun smith?

I send several a year to McLearn Custom Guns. No one I've seen does a better job than Matt McLearn.

I favor neither spending lots, nor being restricted to less than 16" in a carbine.

I have this and love it. It likes IMI 77gr razor Core.
