High Performance, High Reliability Barrel for AR-15 Pistols
Going back to the earliest experiments with shortening the AR platform, the 11.5″ length served as an excellent balance between portability and reliable function. This barrel from Ballistic Advantage marks a significant improvement over the past, with modern features like the sleek Hanson profile for better balance and black nitride finish for longevity.
If you’re planning to run a suppressor on your build, consider what muzzle device is best-suited if you want quick detachment. The Gemtech Quickmount Flash Hider, or the Dead Air Keymount Muzzle Brake are both solid candidates. Be sure to check out our full selection of muzzle devices for one to suit your build.
All Performance Series Barrels feature a Nickel Boron Coated Extended M4 Feed Ramp Extension. Hanson Series Barrels also include a lo-pro gas block and coil pin, ready for permanent and secure attachment. These barrels are not designed to work with aftermarket piston kits.
