Fn herstal button riffled barrel
by Vic -
Typical Fn quality! Not their hammer forged barrel due to government contract……. I would rate this barrel as the same level as the colt le6920, I have limited rounds down the pipe but with m193 she groups at about 2moa.
Good deal

This is a 16” button cut chrome lined barrel with a .078 gas port, .078 is a little too big IMO (unless you’re a poor goober that doesn’t shoot NATO spec ammo and never shoots suppressed) even SOLGW uses .076 for their 16” mid gas ports, and they go a little overboard on their port sizes. All in all this is a good buy, and a decent barrel, I bore scoped it and checked the thread concentricity and it was pretty clean on the inside and The threads were in spec.
It's FN, it's rock solid, best price anywhere

Wanted a tried and true chrome lined barrel for a true defense/fighting rifle I can rely on. Got a screaming deal on this on a weekend sale here at PA, I thought it was a mistake at first. I had been eyeing an expo arms barrel which also seem excellent based on reviews. Yes fully chrome lined, mil-b 11595e steel (confirmed on FN website) MP and HP tested. Bombproof. Seems many have passed this beauty from misprinted description about chrome lining. Every FN barrel is CL and military/duty grade. PA is awesome as always with crazy discounts and fast shipping.
Best ar upgrade

Could not believe when this barrel went on sale for 149.95, and you had a site wide 12% off. So I got this barrel for 131.99. This is the real deal, full chrome lining, chamber and bore. First time out on the range, after sighting in, I put six rounds in red @ 100 yards. I could not be happier with this purchase. That’s why before the sale ended I purchased a second barrel for an ar build for me son. Awesome product true hi quality manufacturing. Thank you PA. Keep the great deals coming!!

Heard great things about FN. This will be by first AR build. Can’t wait to be all done and fire it at the range! Thank you Primary Arms!

This is a wonderful barrel for any ar build. Have built many rifles with it and never had a complaint.
One of the best!

I bought this barrel about a year or so ago, used it in a build a few months ago, and found it to be a tackdriver. It has everything I wanted: FN quality, a 1:7 twist, a hyper-accurate.223 Wylde chamber, mid-length gas system; what's not to love? It seems to prefer ammo with heavier, longer bullets - 68-77 grains, but will shoot anything super-accurately.
