    New member here. I moved from Delaware to Maryland about a year and a half ago. Im 25, have a wife and 3 kids and as far as firearm knowledge goes i grew up around them but only started really getting into them about 4 years ago, So im still learning. I started my ar build a few months ago and hit a snag. Barrels. I have the lower complete. So far for the upper i have a luth-ar stripped upper and guntec 15 inch rail. For the barrel my price range is 100-175. Id like 1moa accuracy if possible for that price. In Delaware it was alot easier to pick a barrel but with Marylands hbar requirement im finding alot less options. Any advice on what route to go, what brands you guys trust and have tried would be appreciated. Thanks for having me and i look forward to being a part of the community.

    Check out DEZ arms. Got a 16inch match grade nitride HBAR barrel for around your price range. Easily shoots 1moa and was told by my gunsmith that it looked very well made.

    Small company but seems they churn out some good stuff .

    So far so good and I also run it suppressed so no alignment issues whatsoever.
