Looking for an AR10 barrel and this seems to be the only manufacturer that I could find.

If you know of another manufacturer that produces a solid, 1 MOA barrel, let me know! smile

Wilson Combat


An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

No experience with Douglas barrels for an AR, but I've got one of their air gauged barrels on a custom bolt gun in 25-06. Very accurate. With that being said, I'll also second Wilson Combat.

Wilson Combat

The one I have experience is in their assembled rifle, their complete upper, everything. However, the shop I use tells me they sell a large volume of Wilson barrels and assemble them into customer builds with the same great results I got.

Mine wasn't a 1 MOA barrel, more like 1/2. 6.5 Creedmoor, 20".

Douglas makes a great button rifled barrel....as does Wilson Combat, I would not hesitate to use either one.

I agree, have one on a 270 and it's a 200 yard tack driver.

ARP. https://www.ar15performance.com/product

I have two of their barrels and both, including the 12.5 in 6.8 SPC-II, are sub MOA. Do some research on the various forums, especially the 6.8, and you'll find they have an outstanding reputation. I don't think you'll find better bang for your buck... peep

I’ve heard their legit

I used to have an early 1980’s Ruger red pad that was lights out accurate

I couldn’t confirm but believe it had a Douglas

Lex Webernick of Rifles, Inc put a Douglas on my 220 Swift some years ago. I asked him to “make it a shooter”, and he did.
