Mega Arms 5.56 Barrels
Our friend Ben at AR15news posted about the upcoming Mega Arms 5.56 Barrels.
Mega Arms has revealed that they are expanding their barrel line and are now producing AR-15 barrels along with their popular .308 AR barrels. The new 5.56 barrels are made from 416 Stainless Steel and feature a black Nitride coating inside and out, 1:8 Twist, 11 Degree Target Crown and M4 feed ramps. They will be offering both 16″ Government profile and 18″ SPR profile, both guaranteed to shoot Sub-MOA with match ammo, at an MSRP of just $269.

Are they planning on making any other length barrels? These barrels look amazingly machined just like everything that comes out of Mega.
