AR barrel question

[mspaeth53]

I would like to know what the difference is between a CHROME LINED and CHROME MOLY barrels are.

Chrome Moly is a type of steel. Chrome lined is a lining of chrome sometimes on a chrome moly barrel. The chrome lined barrel is the way to go, easier to clean and longer barrel life.

As long as its done right - there are stories out there of cheaper barrels that have been chrome-lined and ruined accuracy in the bore because of the way they did it.
