I can't say for sure, but my guess would be that it is just the quality of the picture and that it is actually black.

No it is same park color of all there other barrels from the ones I have seen, color in pic must be off.

Color variance betwen monitors, added in with it being hard to get an exact color of anything online, and you have your culprit.

Bushmaster and Colt barrels are more gray than others like Rock River, Olympic, etc.  They definitely aren't green.

only green because it has not been fired.

Bad lighting or bad picture processing is what you're seeing.  It looks like they took the picture under ancient "greenish" florescent lights.

Green barrels are the most sought after, high quality barrels on the market.  I suggest you buy it immediately!  Plus, chicks really dig the green barrels...

The only 20" at that link is not chrome lined. FYI.

ETA: Nor is it govt profile. Not even close to the same thing.

Okay you are comparing a chrome moly Hbar to a chrome lined govt. profile. Not a good comparison at all. The Chrome lining and turning the Hbar would cost a good bit more than the $50 difference. Not to mention the Bushy bbl is better than the Wilson.

$200 is the going price for a Quality 1/7 20" gov't profile chrome-lined 4150 ordnance grade steel barrel. Yes you can buy cheaper but you will not get the same quality/features.
