Can anyone offer any advice on the barrel that I have linked to below. It's a good price and the reviews on the site are favorable. However I know not to always rely on the reviews provided by the seller of the item in question. I am not looking for historical accuracy; just functionality and quality.

I would order one directly from AK-Builder. Curtis' barrels have an excellent reputation and I can attest to it as well. An issue I see with the barrel you posted is that the gas port is already drilled and it's a 90 degree hole. If you're using an AKM kit (which I'm going to wager you are) then that won't work for you.

AEnemaBay... thank you for the info.  I did not know about the issue with the gas port.  I just ordered a barrel from AK-Builder.
