Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - How to tell if your barrel is chromed lined?

Whats a good way to tell if your AR15 barrel is chromed lined(no markings) by sight?

Touch a bit of cold blue to the end of the bore in the lands and grooves. If lined, it won't blue.

Take off the flash hider.  Look at the end of barrel. There should be a little chrome splashover around the edge of the bore. At least that's what I've always heard.

Look for the frosty silver color.
