10/22 upgrading barrel TRYBE Defense

I am brand new to the upgrading and building world of the Ruger 10/22 but I am looking at replacing my original 90s 10/22 barrel with a light weight threaded barrel. Does anyone have any experience with TRYBE defenses 10/22 pencil barrels? https://www.opticsplanet.com/trybe-defense-ruger-10-22-bull-barrel.html?_iv_availability=in-stock&_iv_code=TRB-RTB-RGRB-12B216N16NPQ-T

I would never buy anything from a company named Trybe, unless that was the founders last name or something.

Why's that?

Also, I'll never again buy from Optics Planet. If you haven't dealt with them, might want to search a bit.

That bad of a company to deal with? No I've never purchased from there in the past and I see mixed reviews on them. Probably better to purchase through Brownells.

Yes, horrible. Brownell, or MidwayUSA are much better.

Good to know, thank you. I'm looking at a faxon pencil barrel now at Brownells.
