KAK Industry M16 Profile Barrel 5.56 NATO Mid-Length 16" Black – AR-15 Platform

The KAK Industry M16 profile barrel delivers reliable performance for AR-15 builds requiring government-profile dimensions and mid-length gas systems. The 16-inch configuration puts this barrel at the legal minimum for rifles, eliminating NFA restrictions while providing excellent velocity retention and practical handling characteristics for general-purpose use, home defense, or competition shooting.

Constructed from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel with a black finish, this barrel features a mid-length gas system that reduces felt recoil and improves cycling reliability compared to carbine-length systems. The M16 profile matches military specifications with a heavier contour under the handguards for heat dissipation during sustained firing. Standard 1/2x28 threading accommodates most muzzle devices and flash hiders. Compatible with standard AR-15 upper receivers chambered in 5.56 NATO or .223 Remington.
