So is this barrel not 16 inches without the muzzle device being welded on? I don't want to have to pin and weld the muzzle device. — 1 Answer

The models listed as having a 16" barrel will be a full 16" regardless of the muzzle device. If it lists that the barrel is under 16" then that is the true barrel length.
