Source of an 18 inch barrel in canada

Building an AR-15 and trying to source an 18 inch barrel, preferably with a rifle length gas system. Anyone know of any sources?

NEA makes an 18" with a mid-length gas system. www.theammosource.com is their primary dealer.

They'll make it any length you want - it's a new'ish site they have up and may not have all of their offering up on it just yet.

Email or call them.

I think I would want midlength on an 18.....I think it would be more reliable.

What makes you lean towards the 18"? A quality 16" will do the same job. If you are making a target rifle I can see maybe doing a 20" but why 18?

going with an 18 for the rifle length gas system, going to be using the gun for occasional 3 gun shooting, softer shooting with rifle vs mid-length, 18 vs 20 for just weight and manageability.
