Ballistic Advantage 5.56 NATO 16" Hanson Barrel with Low Profile Gas Block

In the world of precision firearms, a barrel is not merely a component; it's the very heart of accuracy and reliability. The 5.56 chambered 16-inch Performance Series Barrel from Ballistic Advantage exemplifies this principle with an unwavering commitment to quality and performance.

Machined from robust 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel, this barrel offers exceptional strength and durability. Its QPQ Corrosion Resistant Finish ensures longevity, protecting it against the harsh elements that can compromise lesser materials over time.

The hallmark of Ballistic Advantage's craftsmanship is evident in their Nickel Boron Coated Extended M4 Feed Ramp Extension. This feature enhances feeding efficiency, reducing potential malfunctions often encountered during rapid-fire scenarios or when using varied ammunition types.

Central to this offering is the proprietary BA Hanson profile—a design uniquely tailored for those seeking both balance and handling ease without sacrificing robustness. With a .750" diameter at the gas block journal in its original form, it strikes a fine line between lightness and medium contouring—ideal for shooters who demand versatility.

For those prioritizing agility without losing structural integrity, consider the BA Hanson .625" version. This lighter iteration maintains all critical features while shedding unnecessary weight—perfect for dynamic shooting disciplines where speed meets precision.

A standout characteristic across all BA Hanson barrels is their inclusion of a pinned lo-pro gas block already installed—a testament to thoughtful engineering that simplifies assembly while maintaining rock-solid performance under duress.

However, one must note that these barrels are crafted specifically for direct impingement systems and do not accommodate aftermarket piston kits—a detail confirming Ballistic Advantage's focus on optimizing each element within its intended ecosystem.

Whether you're pursuing competitive excellence or enhancing your personal collection with top-tier components, trust in Ballistic Advantage's Performance Series Barrels as your steadfast ally on any range.
