We recommend this twist rate if you plan to use a suppressor to eliminate the chance of a baffle strike; The SOCOM is capable of launching 500-600 grain bullets at subsonic velocities for suppressed or tactical use; Building the .458 SOCOM takes only two caliber specific parts-a .458 specific bolt and barrel- Wilson Combat is further optimizing their .458 SOCOM rifles by adding an adjustable gas block extra power action spring and straight gas tube as a standard reliability upgrade. Having the ability to easily adjust your gas volume allows the end user to fine tune their carbine's bolt velocity for a specific loads power; Minor machining has been performed to the ejection port opening of the upper receiver to allow clearance for the larger cartridge; The .458 SOCOM feeds flawlessly from many standard unmodified 5.56 AR magazines. Our extensive testing has found the Lancer L5 AWM magazine to be optimal for this round. The Lancer 20 round 5.56 magazine holds seven SOCOM rounds and the 30 round 5.56 magazine will hold nine. The .458 SOCOM achieves optimum ballistic performance in barrel lengths shorter than 16in so there is no need for longer less portable barrels; Package Contents: Wilson Combat .458 SOCOM Recon Tactical Barrel Built Kit 16in Barrel Complete Bolt Carrier Assembly (NP3 Coated) Adjustable Gas Block Gas Tube Straight Whisper Suppressor Interface or Q-Comp Blue Print for Upper Receiver Modification Wilson Combat TR-458K16F22R: Barrel Built Kit AR Platform AR-15 .458 SOCOM 16 in Recon Tactical Carbine Length 1-22 Twist 11/16x24 Threaded Glass Bead
