The plain 16" cold hammer forged barrel with the M4 profile retails for $269 on their website, and the 14.5 inch barrel with FSB goes for $309. Keep in mind that if you get the 14.5 inch, you'll have to either get a flash suppressor permanently pinned (such as the Yankee Hill Phantom Comp series, which brings it to the legal 16"), or else get a Class II permit for an SBR. 14.5 inches is the actual length of the government spec M4, but most civilian "m-foregeries" come with a 16" barrel.
No, it does not.
A chrome barrel refers to a type of firearm barrel that has been lined or coated with chromium, which enhances its durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning. This process helps to improve the barrel's lifespan and maintain its accuracy by reducing wear from the high pressures and temperatures generated during firing. Chrome-lined barrels are commonly used in military and tactical firearms for their reliability in harsh conditions.
Projectiles begin to drop as soon as they exit the barrel.
If you're using it for a leisure plinking/range rifle, you'll probably never see the difference in service life. If it's a rifle you'd be using operationally, or firing on full auto, and displacing high quantities of ammunition, then you would. Daniels Defense is a great company which makes high quality products. I'm really surprised to see that they would have a barrel for only $250, especially as their products tend to be priced more towards the high end. I suppose it would really come down to what you're building your rifle for. If it's going to be a service rifle which sees a lot of use, you'd want the chrome lining. If not, there'll be no benefit to it, and it'll actually impede your accuracy (which is why rifles manufactured for high precision don't use chrome lining in the bore). Noveske is a quality manufacturer, but their products also get marked up a lot because of the name. For a chrome/moly barrel, you could do just as good for considerably less.

chrome lined barrels dont foul up as much. It keeps the barrel free from gunk.
It would reduce it. The only way a P38 would have a chrome lined barrel would be as a result of aftermarket work, or by swapping in a postwar P1 barrel, which would reduce its value for having mismatched parts.
Yes. Any of the major barrel makers or custom gunsmiths. MOA
No, northern two-lined salamanders are not poisonous. They do have a mild toxin in their skin that can act as a defense mechanism against predators, but it is not harmful to humans. These salamanders are generally harmless and play a crucial role in their ecosystems.
Depends on the manufacturer. A lot of manufacturers claim their chrome-lined barrels to be 'mil spec'. However, this is a myth - they don't know what the actual specs are, and the only basis they have for claiming their product to be mil spec is the presence of chrome lining. Chrome lining actually impedes the accuracy of the firearm, and, if you're not careful in which manufacturer you choose, you could very easily end up with cheap chrome lining that will flake off, leaving you both with a barrel unlined in spots and further impeded accuracy.
The instant the bullet leaves the barrel it is subject to gravity. If the barrel is lined up exactly on a distant target, the bullet will fall short. The longer the distance, the more elevation is required. The same applies to a football, baseball, or basketball. When the person you are throwing it to is far away, you throw it higher so that it will reach them. With a bullet the principle is the same. You must also allow for wind
