Is that a good or bad thing? Not that it matters now. I currently have a 10.5" RRA barrel on it and my suppressor stamp is pending, so I figured shorter would be better.

If its Tactical Ambush hope your not in a hurry! Can't believe they would start selling on EBay when they can't even keep up with orders on their website.

They have the same image on their website. Looks like my "deal" is their sale price on the website, but i saved $6 in shipping. Oh well. If it is a decent shooting barrel I will be happy. They have 100% positive feedback. We'll see how this works. |

I feel like this is more of an experiment at this point. |

So I had a chance to get to the range and let off a few rounds. I was there more for functionality of my build more than accuracy. But I can say that the barrel performed up to par for what I was doing, and that was only at 25yrds with a red dot. Although the build hasn't been sighted in (and it has a pistol tube), all shots from the barrel went exactly where I aimed and no flyers. Ammo being used was freedom munitions 115gr reloads and American eagle 124 suppressor ammo. Can't wait to get the stoopid pistol tube off and get a stock to add more stability and control.
Overall thoughts, I'd buy this barrel again if I were looking for one |

I shot mine today and I am impressed. I shot indoors and my max range was 30 feet. This was at 15 feet, 10 rounds.
This was 30 feet, 10 rounds. 
This was 40 rounds of rapid fire at 30 feet.

Ordered mine on 4/28 and it arrived 5/1.
These look like leftover barrel ends cut off during a bbl chop, then threaded and a new barrel extension added. Adco used to do the same. Makes for a very light barrel |

7.5" this time. Do you need a special upper receiver or will a standard 5.56 upper work with a 9mm build? Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
a few more seem to be available. Standard upper works fine, but with 9mm you have no use for the forward assist. Or the deflector for that matter, but a ejection door is nice so that you can install your own "deflector". Before I go on and on about nothing, yes a standard upper works |
