It looks like I’m answering my own question after doing some quick research into the barrel.
No, this is not “cold hammer forged.” This barrel is designed for rigidity and accuracy instead of high capacity use.
CHF barrels are for 15k rounds fired through them but, are not as accurate as “button-rifled” barrels like this HBAR.
