For shooters running suppressed builds or looking for added versatility, the tactical barrel is the smarter choice.

Cold hammer-forged stainless steel construction and a black oxide finish combine strength and durability with smooth performance. These barrels are built to run hard, resist wear, and maintain accuracy through extended use.
