Expert Review Excellent stainless heavy barrel, completed with my choice of components - TRYBE Defense AR-15 16in .223/5.56 M-LOK Semi-Complete Upper Receiver

This is TRYBE build #3, an impressive looking heavy stainless barrel with A2 flash hider that was completed with a TRYBE Enhanced BCG in nickel boron and a TRYBE Magnite self-lubricating charging handle. I love the .223 Wylde chambering that allows us to safely use both .223 Remington as well as 5.56 ammo. This upper prefers heavier bullets, and Federal 69 grainers have given our shooters the best groups. We also use it for green tip and XM193 although this barrel deserves better fodder than that to meet it's potential.
#3 wears a TRYBE 6-24x50 FFP HIPO scope on it in TRYBE rings. This combination has resulted in some of our more experienced shooters' best performances at range days. The heavy stainless barrel looks like serious business, and it is. The A2 flash hider is undoubtedly an effective recoil reducer without excess concussion.
The barrel and chamber clean well after outings, an indication of a quality manufacturing. I feel this barrel will continue to break in and has great potential. Bada** upper, shoots great, cleans well, stainless barrel really stands out visually under the matte M-Lok handguard. Great combination upper with the TRYBE nickel boron BCG and Magnite charging handle.
Pros:
Heavy stainless steel barrel has enormous potential
Cleans easily, an indicator of a quality barrel
A2 flash hider very effective

Cons:
None
