Wilson Combat AR-15 18" Match-Grade Barrel 5.56 NATO Recon Tactical 1-8 Twist Fluted Stainless
Nearly two decades of building the finest custom tactical AR-15 rifles have given Wilson Combat the insight to develop a comprehensive line of stainless steel, match-grade barrels that offer superior accuracy, reliability and longevity for your next custom AR rifle project.
All Wilson Combat match-grade AR-15 barrels are precisely crafted of the finest American-made 416R rifle-rated steel on computer-controlled equipment to their exacting list of technical specifications. These proven barrels feature a hand-polished bore and feedramps and then complete a rigorous final inspection process that ensures your new barrel will meet your most demanding expectations. All barrels feature crisp CNC markings, precision muzzle crown and a chamber and gas port optimized for reliability.
The Recon Tactical is the vision of what a practical, all-around, medium-profile AR barrel for rigorous tactical training, hardcore hunting or all-purpose field applications should be. The Recon can do it all very well. The fluted barrel model reduces weight even further and increases stiffness to the barrel for no loss in practical accuracy.
