That barrel looks like a standard, garden variety 16" M4 profile.

Edited to add: I can't make out the text on the railed forend. Knight's M4 RAS maybe? YHM? Hopefully someone can positively ID it for you.

It's certainly a nice looking, well thought out and nicely set up rig.

A2 - Lighter under the handguards, a little heavier forward of the FSB, otherwise known as government profile.  For noban, add a bayonet lug and flash hider.

Which Bushmaster often calls a "Patrolman's Carbine"

Pretty close to it - they just extended the portion between the notch and the threads by 1.5" so there is no NFA issue to deal with.

Not true.  Could be called an HBAR, Superlight, SPR profile or any number of things if its not a notched M4 barrel.

CAR 15 was a SBR, a 16" ultralight, and other barrel types too.
