Unless it is marked "1 in 9 " on the barrel it is a 1 in 12.

i assume that it will be marked down by the barrel nut?

the only thing i can see on the barrel other than the normal stuff is stampings that say A2, SP2 or SF2 and E3

Yes, It will be in the roll mark with the model number.

This is one method of measuring twist rate also. Brian Brown.
