Build a compact .338 ARC AR-15 around the Moriarti 10.5" .338 ARC Pistol Barrel. Featuring a fast 1:5 twist rate and pistol-length gas system, this barrel is designed for short .338 ARC configurations where compact dimensions and heavy-projectile capability are priorities.
The barrel is manufactured from durable 4150 CrMoV steel with a medium profile and protective nitride finish. A .750" gas block journal provides compatibility with appropriately sized gas blocks, while the muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 for compatible muzzle devices and suppressor mounting systems.
At 10.5 inches, this barrel provides a practical middle ground between ultra-short .338 ARC configurations and full-length rifle barrels. The combination of a short barrel and 1:5 twist makes it particularly relevant for customers researching compact, heavy-projectile and suppressor-oriented .338 ARC platforms.
For shooters moving beyond 300 Blackout or adding .338 ARC to an AR-15 collection, this 10.5" .338 ARC barrel provides a purpose-built foundation for a compact pistol or properly registered SBR configuration.

The 5/8-24 muzzle thread does not automatically make every .338 suppressor compatible. The suppressor and mounting system must be manufacturer-rated for the cartridge, barrel length, ammunition, and firearm configuration.
This Moriarti 10.5" .338 ARC barrel uses a pistol-length gas system with a .750" gas block journal. Gas-system specifications are especially important when selecting components for a short-barreled AR-15 configuration, so the gas block, gas tube, ammunition, and other components should be matched to the barrel manufacturer's specifications.
