The Spikes Tactical AR-15 5.56 Cold Hammer Forged Barrel with FSP is pinned. The Spikes Tactical AR-15 5.56 Cold Hammer Forged Barrels with low profile gas block use set screws.

The two 16” barrels I own are pinned. They have one pin and set screws. If you zoom in on the picture of the gas block you can see the single pin hole. It’s solid.
