Anyone know where a man can find a 556 or 223 Wylde barrel in a 11-11.5” length. Been looking for a while now and can’t find crap. Not looking for a high/top end barrel per say but more something middle of the road.

Maybe I’m not looking in places you guys know about. Any help appreciated so I can finish off this truck gun

Delta Team Tactical had Rosco 11.5 barrels in stock a couple of weeks ago, try there.

Don't know, but they are listed in stock. Right now pistol barrels are few and far between.

Only for about 26,000 rounds of full auto fire:

In my regular looking for gun deals, I came across a couple things:

Spikes 11.5 CHF

These are made by FN, I've got a couple FN CHF barrels and they are awesome.

https://www.opticsplanet.com/spikes-tactical-cold-hammer-forged-barrel-w-fsp.html

Rosco 11.5

https://www.opticsplanet.com/rosco-...-finish-1-7-twist-1-2x28-4150-cmv-b.html

Also, a del-ton (cheap but solid IME) complete (bcg and ch) 11.5 upper

Good luck with your build

If I was building for serious purposes, that FN made barrel, regardless of who's name was on it, would be top of my list.

For the price, that Rosco looks worth trying. We know they hold up well.

Screwed together an 11.5 Rosco build this afternoon. Need to get an optic for it and try it out.

Nice.

Now you just need 26,750 rounds for it.

Here is another barrel that is available as of right now. If this had been available a few weeks ago I would've probably picked it over the Rosco. From what Ive read, everyone seems to generally like the Faxon.

It probably won't be in stock long.

Another vote for the Spikes FN made barrel. Plus it’s available in pencil profile. To me that profile balances better and makes for sense than a government profile.

Looks good.

You have a can for it?

Nope, not yet. Planning on it though. Next thing will be an optic, probably a suppressor next year.
