    That's an acr barrel. The recess machined 1/3 up from the bottom is for a clamp that secures a guide for the piston... the gas port is also a different size than an AR barrel

    Did you put in the gas tube yet?

    The ACR uses AR15 barrel extensions so it should fit on an AR15, as long as the gas tube is the correct length off the gas block. An AR15 barrel however wouldn't have the necessary cutouts to put the gas system parts on from the ACR.

    The gas port hole is also smaller on an acr barrel... but good luck with your build.

    +1. Where'd you source a 6.8SPC bolt from?

    Questar makes them for the AR but they say you can modify it for the ACR.
