FN America 5.56 Button Rifled Mid-Length Government Barrel 16" - $179.99

FN America currently has 12 AR models listed. Only two have CHF barrels, the FN 15 Tactical ll, and the Tactical FDE carbine. 7 of the 12 models are LE restricted, and all seven have button rifled barrels. That shows me that FN is confident their button rifled barrels can compete well with anything in the LE arena. At $132, I think this is an unbeatable deal.

I have done further research and found that it is U.S. sourced Chrome Moly Venadium material per Mil-B-11595E. "Each barrel is High Pressure Tested (HPT) and Magnetic Particle Inspected (MPI) and This grade (CMV) of steel is a Mil-Spec steel used in the USGI M16 family of rifles; it is stronger and will last longer than the typical barrels offered in the commercial market."

That sounds like a good barrel. I just wish I could buy about 3-4 of them right now for $130. A out of stock BCM barrel with same/similar specs was $324

From what I've learned, or think I've learned, the barrel in the image above is indeed a fluted FN barrel that was advertised and sold by PA in 2020 as a "contract-overrun".
Here is part of the description that was on the item page at PA when it was available:
"FN America 16'' 5.56 mid-length hybrid profile (continuous taper) fluted cold hammer forged chrome lined MP/HP tested barrel"
Here is the old URL to the item page for the fluted contract-overrun barrel that now redirects to the Government barrel being advertised here at gun.deals:
