The Ward SLIM BrainTrust 9mm AR Barrel – [NERD]

The Ward 16.1″ barrel is built for the shooter needing the absolute in 9mm barrel accuracy for Pistol Caliber Carbine matches, competitions or to train with a length that mirrors that of their AR in 223/5.56 but at the price of 9mm. The Ward 16.1″ barrel has a slight tapper from extension to muzzle.

The Ward Ring Radial Fluting gives increased surface exchange for heat dissipation during prolonged firing in full auto or semi auto operation.  Despite the increased surface area and rapid heat dissipation, barrel harmonic changes are nonexistent during extensive testing.  The barrel itself is finished off in a QPQ – LifeJacket coating. This is a multi step coating process resulting in a very uniform consistent nitride layer on all BrainTrustbarrels.  [NERD] BrainTrust barrels are hand inspected and test fired for quality control.  Each barrel is individually serialized and date coded using the established Heckler & Koch (HK) method for reference.   Lastly, every single one of our barrels ships with a Certificate of Authenticity matching the unique serialized barrel, signed by [NERD] founders, ensuring this product meets our standards and is worthy of your time and hard earned money.
