Barrel needed

[stripper clip]

I might need to get a new barrel for my SP 1. Can anyone reccomend where I can get a USGI 1:12 M-16A1 barrel? Thanks for the help.

Just curious. Why do you need a new barrel?

The rifle does not seem to shoot as well as I would like. I don't have any gauges to measure muzzle or throat errosion, so I used a round to do a bullet test on the muzzle. The muzzle took the bullet all the way to the top of the brass case with no part of the bullet showing. I've used this test before on some other rifles, which I was later able to gauge. I recall one 30 cal. that almost ate the bullet, and ended up gauging 3.5 at the muzzle and the throat was a 6. It did not shoot well either, but is good now with a new barrel.

If anyone has advice, please feel free to say so. Thanks.
