Description
Build a compact blaster without sacrificing accuracy. This 11.5 inch Tactical Kinetics barrel is cut from 4140 Gun-Barrel-Quality steel and black-nitride treated inside and out for corrosion resistance.A medium profile keeps weight sensible while maintaining stiffness, and the carbine-length gas port is tuned for reliable cycling with everything from 55- to 77-grain loads. Button rifling and a fast 1:7″ twist stabilize today’s heavier OTM and barrier rounds, while SAAMI-spec machining and M4 feed-ramps promote smooth feeding.
Chambered in .223 Wylde, it safely handles both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition—giving you match-grade accuracy with the entire spectrum of commonly-available AR-15 ammo. The 11.5″ length is ideal for registered SBRs or pistol builds that need quick handling, suppressed versatility and minimal blast compared with true “shorties.”
Threaded 1/2×28 TPI at the muzzle for your choice of flash hider, brake or suppressor mount and finished with a .750″ gas block journal and standard extension, this barrel drops into any MIL-spec upper with no gunsmithing required. Backed by Tactical Kinetics’ reputation for tight QC and U.S.-made materials.
