should be, but look in the muzzle for that dull silver lining that contrasts with the parkerizing.

It was my understanding that "HBAR" barrel had a chrome chamber but the bore was not chromed?

Look at the barrel markings

HBAR = Heavy barrel

C = Chrome lined

MP = Magnetic partical tested

1/9 = twist rate

5.56 Nato = Chamber

Look at the barrel markings

HBAR = Heavy barrel

C = COLT

MP = Magnetic partical tested/Proof load fired

1/9 = twist rate

5.56 Nato = Chamber


ETA: 6721's are chrome lined.

Thanks, looks like I was told incorrectly on the "C" marking....makes sense.

The only rule with most things Colt, is that there are always exceptions to the rule.  That being said, most of Colt's A2 and later chrome lined barrels have an "O" stamp near the chamber section of the barrel.
