There is no such thing as a "fast rate" or "slow rate" barrel for AR-15s military or otherwise. Poster may be confused by the twist rate of barrels which has nothing to do with rate of fire and is related to the rifling of the barrel which puts spin on a bullet for accuracy. https://www.ballisticadvantage.com/blog/ar-15-barrel-twist-rate-explained/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1821086087114047503
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
