    source for worn out AR-15 barrels?

    Does anyone know where I can find worn out AR-15 barrels? I am looking for a matching pair, preferably 20" or longer with the front sight block still attached.

    This will be for a "rat rod(ish)" style bike project with a gun theme. I plan to use the barrels as a basis to fab a rear rack, or to use as sissy bars for the banana seat. I also plan to use a pair of A2 pistol grips(leftover from stock LPKs) as my handlebar grips. I already have .45 shell casings as my valve stem caps, .50AE shell casings for bolt caps for my rear wheel, and I'm using cut down 12GA hulls as center caps for the crank arm hubs and as end caps for my current handlebar grips.

      Who would keep one? Those are installed on uppers and sold....Have somebody turn one in a lathe. Drill a .224 hole in the end. No one will know it's fake...just make sure they machine the FSB area to .750".

              You could ask Randall at AR 15 barrels. He is a frequent poster.
              I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong...
