DANIEL DEFENSE Barrel 5.56 16" Matte Black

Daniel Defense's 16" Government Profile Mid-Length Cold Hammer Forged Barrels are made from start to finish in a state-of-the-art facility located in Black Creek, GA. In keeping with a tradition of high quality components, all cold hammer forged barrels feature a forged chamber and the highest quality exterior coating. These barrels will prove themselves to be more accurate and last longer than a barrel that has cut or button rifling. The Cold Hammer Forging of barrels is accomplished through intense hydraulic pressure applied at opposing angles by carbide steel hammers. During the hammering process, a mandrel is inserted into the bore while the carbide steel hammers shape the barrel around the mandrel creating the chamber, the lands, and the grooves. In addition to the aforementioned benefits, the Cold Hammer Forging process creates a defect free bore and the most consistent chamber possible. Does not include gas block or front sight block.
