    Trybe barrels?

    Does anyone have experience with Trybe AR barrels? I know that they are an Optics Planed brand, but I don't know who builds them. The one I'm looking at is a nitride barrel and well priced, but I don't know and can't find any information about quality, bore concentricity of threads, etc. Comparisons to other brands like Faxon and Ballistic Advantage would be great.

    I’m not really dwelling, but these barrels are clearly made for OP by a third party. If they are made by a decent manufacturer then price and availability make them attractive. If they aren’t made by a good company or if no information is available I’m definitely going with a known entity.

    Only thing that turns me away is the wylde chambering. If that does not bother you, get it. Worst case, it last 10K rounds VS 15K. Cost off ammo it wont matter at that point. Barrels are consumables. for the price, I would rock one if they had nato chambers.

    Check these out for a US Made quality BBL @ a fair price. https://whitelabelarmory.com/m16-ar1...56-16-m4-4140/ I have both a 16 Carbine gas and a 16 Mid-length and for the $$$ I have no complaints with function or accuracy ! Mine is a 1/7 twist but most all the other specs are the same. This one is 1/8 but should still work fine for ya depending on your bullet/ammo of choice. Sign up for In Stock Notifications and then jump fast cuz the trolls are a trollin and buy stuff fast !

    What, if I may ask, is your concern over WYLDE chambers? Just curious and not meant to be argumentative at all.
    The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.
