[ARCHIVED THREAD] - barrel ID question

Posted: 10/23/2004 12:47:36 AM EDT

Someone please help me ID this barrel, when I bought it I was told it was an Armalite

. There are no markings at all on the barrel and I believe it is chrome lined. Plus the barrel nut will not come off the barrel. All I know is that this thing is one heavy ass barrel...Here are some pics of it....Thanks for any help

looks like an eagle arms/armalite super heavy match whatever they call it
too thick to put a float tube around it, the groove is for the gas tube
i really doubt if it is chrome lined, may want to call armalite for verification

its a eagle/armalite super heavy match barrel. its stainless (blackened) and mine is pretty accurate.

The barrel nut is retained by the barrel extension and impinges on a shoulder at the rear of the barrel. Yeah, removal of same is a PITA.
