About this rifle barrel
Ballistic Advantage AR-15 Modern Series 5.5 Barrel is a rifle barrel, 5.5 in, 1-10 twist, 1/2-28 threads.
Match the barrel to your platform (gas system length, barrel extension and thread pitch on an AR; the exact action on a bolt gun). Twist rate decides which bullet weights stabilize: faster twists suit heavier bullets.
Manufacturer details
This 9mm chambered 4.5 inch Modern Series Barrel is machined from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel with a QPQ Corrosion Resistant Finish and 1/2-28 x .400 full profile threads.
Designed to work with both Colt/RR and Glock style AR builds.
Compatible with standard mil-spec uppers. There are also numerous dedicated 9mm upper options that work.
Requires the use of a unique magwell conversion (Colt/Rock River style) with UZI mags or a dedicated 9mm lower with Glock mags. 9mm on an AR15 platform operates by blowback and does not need a gas block or gas tube.
Threaded 1/2x28 or 1/2x36 to give you greater versatility when choosing a suppressor.
Integrated feed ramp and barrel extension.
Since the “barrel extension” is an integral part of the barrel, the length stated is the true overall length. For example, an 11” 9mm barrel has the same outer dimensions/length as a 10.5” 5.56 barrel.
IMPORTANT: A standard 1/2x28 flash hider will not have enough clearance for a 9mm round to pass.
