ELD Performance "Firkin" AR-15 16" 6.5 Grendel, 
Carbine gas, Hbar, 1-8 T Melonite Barrel

General Barrel Info: The barrel on an AR-15 originally operates under a 'gas impingement' system, by tapping gas off of the barrel and cycling it back through the gas system to assist the bolt carrier in unlocking and extracting the spent cartridge. AR-15 Barrels come in four different specifications for gas systems, Pistol, Carbine, Mid-Length, and Rifle. AR-15 Barrels vary between profiles as well from Government, to Heavy, and Slim. Thanks to the modularity of AR-15, you can choose different calibers starting with the barrel, each with its specific twist rates. Choosing your barrel for your next AR-15 build has never been easier.

About This Barrel: The Barrel is made by ELD PErformance it is 16" long, and is machined from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium and finished in a NItride appearance. Chambered for 6.5 Grendel, using a H-Bar profile design, this barrel will fit your next AR-15 build perfectly.

About the Profile: H-Bar - A heavy barrel adds a lot of weight to the rifle but a rifle thus equipped is more accurate than a rifle with a normal barrel because a heavy barrel heats up much more slowly than a normal barrel. With more material added, a heavy barrel by design is structurally stronger and more accurate.

Barrel Classification: Rifle

Length: This Barrel is designated as rifle barrel with an overall 16" length.

Caliber: 6.5 Grendel - This barrel is chambered in 6.5 Grendel, a precision cartridge developed for the AR-15 platform, designed with superior long-range ballistics, and is a great middle-ground between 5.56 NATO and .308 Win in long-range performance.

Material: 4150 CrMoV - Chrome-Moly Vanadium, or simply "CMV", is the official mil-spec gun steel developed by Colt Firearms for the military-issued M16 and M4. It contains the same elements as 4150 steel. It also contains Vanadium. Vanadium significantly increases the strength, hardness, and high-temperature stability of the steel.

Finish: Nitride - Nitriding is a process during manufacturing that diffuses nitrogen into the steel to make a case-hardened surface for improved resistance and strength. A Nitrided barrel typically has a gloss black texture.

Thread Pitch: 5/8x24 - 5/8x24 Threads are commonly found on barrels chambered in .30 Cal and up. Usually .308 Win, .300BLK, 6.5 Grendel, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 7.62x39. Muzzle Devices such as flash hiders, blast cans, and compensators will work with this barrel.
