Daniel Defense 300 Blackout Barrel, 10.3-inch, S2W Pistol Profile

The Daniel Defense 300 Blackout Barrel, 10.3 inches (brand part no. 36-116-06191-018), is a cold hammer-forged barrel built with Daniel Defense’s Strength to Weight, or S2W, profile and a pistol-length gas system. Cold hammer forging shapes the bore, chamber, lands, and grooves under intense hydraulic pressure from carbide steel hammers working around a mandrel, a process Daniel Defense has relied on for decades because it produces a defect-free bore and one of the most consistent chambers achievable, resulting in a barrel that’s both more accurate and longer-lasting than one cut or button rifled. Every Daniel Defense cold hammer-forged barrel, including this one, is made start to finish at the company’s facility in Black Creek, Georgia.
