Mfr. No.: 1518S-FL12

When the added velocity of a longer barrel needs to be preserved, but the desire for additional weight reduction remains, barrel fluting serves as an excellent solution to help shave away unwanted bulk. Criterion fluted AR-15 barrels are designed to ensure maximum concentricity and consistent dimensions throughout the full length of the bore. Eight flutes are machined around the circumference of the barrel to the front and rear of the gas port. Each flute is polished to smooth jagged edges while retaining a sharp appearance. Each 416R stainless steel barrel comes complete with an M4 barrel extension and a .223 Wylde chamber designed to accept both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO cartridges.

Brownells USA 20 inch criterion 31/07/2017

I bought an ar15 in November started reloading in February I never had good accuracy with the gun until I put this barrel on now everything that I put through it shoots between 1/2 inch - 3/4 inch 5 shot groups @ 100 yards I've never given a review before but feel compelled to give Criterion a big thumbs up. Good job and thanks

Definitely recommended

Brownells USA very high quality 13/09/2016

I bought this barrel for my second AR build. The fit and finish was of the highest quality that I have seen. All the threads and surfaces where very smooth with no burs of any kind. Everything went together without any issues at all.
