I have parts to build my first AR, all except the barrel and the gas tube, I think. I will have a gunsmith put it together for me because I don't know what I'm doing. Can someone recommend to me a manufacturer for the barrel? I generally buy good quality firearms from reliable manufacturers but not high end really expensive stuff. But I don't know much about AR parts. What I think I want is a 16 inch threaded barrel with a 1:7 twist rate in 5.56 or preferably 223 Wylde. Can I get something of medium or better quality for $200? What brands should I look for? This is not for long range shooting but I'd like to hit steel plates at 200 yards. Thanks for any help!
