I just got my 16" 9mm barrel. I'm wondering if there is a proper way to break it in.

Additionally, I'm wondering what you all think the best brake/comp/flash can etc is for a 16" PCC build. I'm thinking a vg6 epsilon as that's what I have on my 5.56 but I'm looking for other options for competition and plinking in general.

The pressures are low enough on a pistol caliber barrel that I just shoot'em.......always run a patch or two through to clean thee preservative out......but I have PCC barrels with 30,000 plus rounds........the nitirde coating we use is incredibly durable. I run standard A2 flash suppressors on my personal......but you can't go wrong with the VG-6
