    I got a Noveske 7.5" from Wes Grant at MSTN about 4 years ago. They are not cheap but was worth it in my opinion. When he was function testing my upper he put a NF 3.5x15 on it and shot sub moa groups from a bench at 100 yards. Not that that was its intended purpose but I thought it was impressive for such a short barrel.

    check out gunbroker. There is a dude selling a 556 7,5in one that lives in Severna Park on there. I contacted him via gunbroker and met him in person. Only thing I didnt like was that the barrel was not stamped with their chamber or twist ratio. Checked min headspace with a live round and it passed. and bought a max headspace gauge and it passed that too.

    I bought one of those barrels from that guy for a pistol build. His gunbroker user name is highclasshillbilly. It works just fine. He also has BCGs and 16 m4 profile barrels.

    How does it shoot? Price looks great I have been kicking around a 9.5 but may consider something smaller.

    Havent had a chance to shoot 556 rounds through it yet. That and it's for my Dads build. I just did the research and measurements for him. He bought the guys last chrome lined one.

    Ask TyFromMD if he shot his yet and how he likes it.

    I shot mine quite a bit, actually. I put a KX3 pig on it, used a yhm gas block and spikes pistol length gas tube. Cycled okay and shot fairly accurately with both 5.56 and .223 FMJ ammo. The value you get for the price is significant.

    The only issue I had with the gun I don't believe was barrel related. I think the Spikes spring and buffer were too short for the Phase 5 tube and my bolt gas key was striking the lower receiver.

    Haha, that is exactly the same parts my dad has, except for the the flaming pig and phase 5 tube. He went with a spikes pistol buffer tube assembly with the H2 buffer. Once the flaming pig is back in stock thatll go on as well.
