Description
A 14.5″ SOLGW barrel in 6mm ARC, 416 stainless with a 1:8 twist, converted to the LMT® MRP™ barrel interface. 6mm ARC puts a high-BC six-millimeter projectile in an AR-15-sized receiver, and this length suits a handy carbine under an MRP-L handguard.
The RIFLESPEED Gas Control is installed and pinned before shipment — twelve numbered positions with a tactile click, adjusted by hand without tools and without pulling the handguard. Fitted and tuned with the #887 plunger, optimized for 6mm ARC, with the standard #917 plunger included so the gas system can be configured further by the shooter. The plunger and setting are recorded on the barrel inspection record.
6mm ARC runs the 6.5 Grendel case head, not the 5.56 bolt face, so this barrel needs a Grendel-pattern bolt — the bolt changes, the carrier does not. A matched bolt group can be added and gauged to this barrel.
Converted to the LMT® MRP™ barrel interface, then inspected, gauged and assembled by the Second of Ten build team to a documented standard. Installs with the MRP™ upper’s factory barrel hardware — no proprietary tooling and no permanent modification to the receiver. Headspace is gauged and recorded on the barrel inspection record before shipment.
Ships shooter ready: gas tube installed and the muzzle protected by the SOT Standard Barrel Thread Protector (CNC-machined steel, black or nitride finish), with no muzzle device fitted. We carry muzzle devices from a number of manufacturers and can install and time them for you — for a specific muzzle device, please ask before ordering.
