Enjoy a Blast from the Past with these Phosphate Coated and Chrome-Lined Barrels.
We found Stray Dogs begging for scraps; these leftovers are the last of a large OEM order that we are offering to the public.
Great for cloners and purists, these barrels share the same features as our Bloodline 16” USASOC barrel with 5.56 NATO chamber and mid-length gas but with the classic, time-tested, and proven mil-spec phosphate coating and chrome-lined bore.

The barrel meets my expectations, build quality is what i expected. Have not installed yet, still waiting on a few things. I am glad i finally looked at your products as a result of watching School of The American Rifle’s video of one of your barrels that had seen full auto service in it’s use. I was looking for this type of barrel. Having seen the other products on your website, i plan purchasing one of your continuous profile barrels.

Received in a timely manner. Well packaged and protected. Everything appeared to be high quality and as expected. Assembled with Aero upper, Phase 5 gas block, Rosco gas tube, Midwest handguard, H M Defense bolt, and Radian charging handle. On a cold windy day I was able to get the LPVO zeroed and found 1 to 1-1/2 MOA of accuracy with multiple rounds of ammo. I have shot 55, 62, 68, 77 grain ammo and will continue till I figure out what the barrel likes best. I am satisfied with Rosco and the SOCOM profile barrel. Will buy from Rosco again and recommend this barrel if it fits your needs.

Purchased Stray Dog when they first became available. Tolerances right on the money, easy assembly. With milspec bolt, buffer, and gas block it shucks rounds about 10 feet to the 4 o’clock position in a little pile. Not a lot of rounds shot through it yet but it seams to be a shooter with many bullet weights. Very pleased. Bought another! Recommend you get one while you can and this become a regular stocking item.

Forgot to add that this Stray Dog needs to be adopted and become a member of the family. Name it Hammer!

This barrel is intended for an upcoming build, so it has not been put through the paces yet.
Was received in a timely manner, and all Rosco barrels are packaged well.
The material from the gas port drilling was still stuck in the port, and the barrel interior was rather filthy. Easy to punch out the material, and a quick job to clean up the bore. For this reason, I can’t quite give the 5 stars.

Stuffed it into a Centurion thermal fit upper, backed up with a Toolcraft BCG. Function was flawless from the first shot, worked well with 55 and 62 gr ammo. Finish is excellent as well. This will be my oldest son’s 21st birthday present and I’m sure it will serve him well.

Good barrel. Fit and finish was good upon delivery. Accuracy with M193 Winchester 55 grain was 1.9″ at 100 yards over the course of 100 rounds. Ran suppressed with that ammo, a 4.9 oz buffer was needed to eject at 4 o’clock. The gas orifice is on the larger size on this one, which is fine for unsuppressed use but if suppressing you’ll need an H2 or H3 buffer or an adjustable gas block or BCG.
Would buy again.

The first thing I noticed was the attention to detail in the packaging. It wasn’t just wrapped and thrown in a box. The brand was presented so when you took the lid off you could read the barrel specs. Then I notice the gas block dimple which I verified with my borescope is dead on with the gas block installed. I’m sold on your barrels!

This is “not” my first Rosco Mfg. barrel purchase for an AR build. I was looking for a chrome lined barrel and found the Stray Dod SOCOM model on sale, so I purchased it. The Rosco barrels are always packed and shipped in special care boxes which helps protect the contents. Their barrels are dimpled which is a real plus. I never had any type of a problem with a Rosco barrel install. Their quality is exceptional … keep up the good work!
