    I have never seen a Chrome Lined Match Grade. All match grade I have ever seen are stainless.

    14.5 Shilen barrel

    Chrome lined and match grade dont belong in the same sentence.

    Just order a Wilson stainless or a Bushmaster and call it good.

    I can't believe you can't find a 14.5 barrel... Those tend to be much easier to find since you have to have a permanently installed flash hider or comp installed for it to be legal without doing all the NFA stuff. Are you sure you're not looking for a 16" barrel? Also why are you set on 1/7? A 1/9 twist tends to not have as much throat erosion if you're looking for barrel life. It just won't stabilize the really heavy stuff but if you stick to the norm 55gr, 62gr a 1/9 will shoot just fine.

    No such thing as Match chrome lined though. If you are looking for accuracy stainless is going to be the only way to go. If you are looking for a barrel to toss a lot of rounds down range with go chrome even though it won't be as accurate as the stainless.

    Either way Bravo company has both stainless and chrome barrels in stock and BCM stuff is quality so you should have no worries.

    Hey cofi,

    Not sure if you checked out MidwayUSA's website, but here are some 14.5" chrome lined barrels from Daniel Defense and most of them have a status of "Available". They also have a 1:7 twist.

    http://www.midwayusa.com/browse/Brow...*&brandId=2684

    That was just a quick glance at their AR-15 barrels and I'm not sure if you have a brand preference. Locally (if you live in the Denver area), if you haven't already, check 5280 Armory.

    Good luck to you.
