    I started with the purebred line and they became my go to barrel. Then I decided to give the k9 12.5 then 11.5 with the patrol length gas and loved them. Well balanced soft shooting suppressed or unsuppressed. So when I seen a 16’’ k9 with an intermediate gas system. I had to build out a new upper. When I got the barrel at first impression I thought it was heavy. After getting it together, it was well balanced and shot soft & flat. I don’t have a lot of rounds thru it as of now. But I can say it’s my favorite to shoot out of my 16’’, 13.7’’ or 14.5’’ rifles. As are my k9 11.5 and 12.5 SBR’s. The k9 series are great barrels.

    Fit and finish is fantastic. Swapped it out with an older 16” barrel with a carbine length gas system. Shoots super smooth. Didn’t test it specifically for groups as I am primarily only shooting 55fmj out of it but was easy to stack em on steel at 100yds. Super smooth shooting and better weight distribution/ balance. Big improvement over the other barrel. Don’t have a lot of rounds through it but I don’t think this barrel will give me any issues down the road. I would highly recommend it if you’re in the market for a 16” barrel.
