Would all or most AR-15 barrels in the market have a gas port ?

I've seen some put this feature in the description but others don't

    If it's a barrel specifically for an AR-15, it will have a gas port. The question is whether or not it'll be a full-length, carbine-length, or pistol-length system, because that determines what length of gas tube you need.

    If it is an AR-15 it usually will have a gas port. I know that not ALL have barrel as most test barrels don't nor do bolt action ar's which do exist.

    If you want them to be semi-auto and they are for an AR-15, they have to have a gas port.

    No, some are called direct impingement and as such, do not have a gas tube.
