My AR currently has a 16"heavy barrel, but I would like a rifle length 20" barrel upper too. Mainly I guess for range use, but of course to double if ever needed for defense. I was looking at just buying a 20" Hbar rifle, but the ones I am looking at, I can't afford, and don't have the room for another rifle.
Delton specs

Includes
20" 1x9 twist - Heavy Profile
Chrome Moly Vanadium barrel
Flat Top Upper with White T-Marks & M4 Feed Ramps

***This upper is assembled, head spaced, and test fired.
PSA upper;
20" Barrel length
"Machine Gun Steel" barrel
5.56 Nato Chamber
1 in 7" twist rate
Extra-thick chrome-lined bore
M4 Feed ramps
F-Marked Front sight post
A2 Flash Hider
Sling Loop
Rifle Hand Guards w/ heat sheilds
Forged upper receiver
T-Marks
Does not include BCG or Charging Handle
SKU: 30796
Upper: Forged 7075-T6 A3 AR upper is hard coat anodized black for durability. Featuring T-marks, these upper upper receivers are made for us right here in the USA.
Each upper is assembled to order with US-made parts, and test fired to check gas function. Does not include bolt carrier group or charging handle.
So, the Delton has a 1/9 twist, which would cover a wide range of projectiles. It also comes with a BCG, Complete and ready to go. The PSA barrel is chrome lined hammer forged, made by FN, but no BCG. So, if given the choice, which would be the better option? I'm kinda just overthinking this maybe. Thanks in advance for any insight.

FEATURES
Barrel: A proprietary blend of Hammer forged chrome molly vanadium made by FN that is referred to as "Machine Gun Steel" by virtue of its required use in FN's M249 and M240 weapons. The hammer forging process work hardens the steel, making it more durable. In addition, the chrome process for the bore allows for a lining almost twice as thick as a standard M16 for enhanced durability. Chambered in 5.56 NATO, with a 1/7 twist, M4 barrel extension, and a rifle-length gas system. The A2 profile barrel is Mil-spec phosphate coated, High Pressure tested and Magnetic Particle inspected. Barrel is finished off with an F-marked front sight post with sling swivel, standard handguards and an A2 flash hider.Upper: Forged 7075-T6 A3 AR upper is hard coat anodized black for durability.
