FAQ
Is this barrel compatible with Glock or Colt style AR-9 lowers?
This barrel is compatible with most standard AR-9 uppers, but you must ensure your bolt and magazine well (Glock vs. Colt pattern) are matched correctly. The barrel itself does not dictate magazine compatibility.
Will I need a specific handguard length for this 4.5″ barrel?
Yes. For a flush fit, you will want a handguard slightly shorter than 4.5 inches. A 4-inch handguard is a common pairing. For a recessed or suppressor-ready look, choose a longer handguard.
