As for chrome lined barrels vs chrome moly vs stainless, you need to first figure out what kind of rifle it's going to be and what range you are going to be shooting at. Is it going to be a blaster that you shoot at close range, a range toy that you take out every couple months and shoot at 200-400 yrds, or is it going to be a target gun. Chrome lining a barrel increases it's longevity but hurts it's accuracy, this makes it a great option for blasters that see a lot of rounds but most people see it as a less desirable option for range toys and is a "stay away" option for target guns. Stainless steel is the best of everything and is a most have for target guns but is overkill for anything else.
I understand and yes the chrome BCG would be for looks only. I also want a fancy looking flash hider as well. I just want the gun to look cool, shoot accurate, and not break my bank. I don't think thats a combination I'm going to find haha.

My plan is to take this to the range and fire some rounds, but mainly to have it just to have an AR in case sh*t ever goes down. I plan to get the gun, shoot 50-100 rounds through it a month, and stockpile ammo.
