anyone had experience with JSE Surplus? looking at the following barrel and interested in any opinions.
16" M4 1x9 Nitride 5.56 Barrel Stripped http://www.jsesurplus.com/16M41x9Nitride5.56BarrelStripped.aspx |

Nothing saying that its chrome LINED. Is this something that will affect your decision?

We have only shot a couple hundred rounds thru it so far but I think it is GTG. It is acceptably accurate and cleans up easy. |

I ordered one last week on Friday and it was shipped on Monday. They ship USPS Priority with signature confirmation required. I wasn't home for delivery so I'll pick it up at the PO on Tuesday. Won't have it on a rifle ready to shoot for about another month but I'll post pics and general impressions when I get it. So far I'm happy - they shipped it really fast, emailed copy of invoice, shipping notification with tracking #, etc...

Have not shot it yet but it looked good. Also a great company to deal with |

Since it's a treatment and not a coating, the barrel's rifling can be cut to size (chrome lining requires an oversize bore to compensate for lining thickness) so accuracy is better in a nitrided barrel. |
