Look behind you...
Dear god, it's driving me crazy. I got a Double diamond supply 9mm colt pattern lower, and am looking for a barrel for it. I need a stainless 16" barrel. I have no idea what the best twist rate for it is, I have seen 1:10, 1:14, 1:16... Any help here would be appreciated. I'm trying to build a lightweight, non-NFA rifle in the Peoples Republik of Kalifornia. I tried RRA barrels (chrome), and didn't like the quality of the one I got, maybe a fluke, but, meh. Anyone have a source for SS, and idea on the right twist? Thanks.
