Sub MOA Accuracy Guarantee!

The Ballistic Advantage 10.3″ Classic Series 5.56 Chrome Lined Carbine Barrel is designed for short-barreled rifles (SBRs) and AR pistols, offering a compact yet high-performance option for tactical, defensive, and close-quarters applications. Constructed from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium (CMV) steel, this barrel delivers exceptional strength, heat resistance, and longevity.

For superior corrosion resistance and enhanced durability, the bore and chamber are chrome-lined. This military-proven feature ensures the barrel maintains accuracy and withstands heavy use while being easier to clean. The exterior is finished with a manganese phosphate coating, providing a rugged, classic appearance while enhancing wear resistance.

Performance & Application:

The Ballistic Advantage 10.3″ Classic Series 5.56 Chrome Lined Carbine Barrel is tailored for high-speed, close-quarters combat environments.
