A normal barrel does increase accuracy, but not range.

Wait, do you mean the range decreases with the barrel? Even if that was true (I'm unsure whether it is or not) the Retaliator is a rifle, which means accuracy comes first. And if we assume that the Retaliator is already more powerful than other Elite weapons, I'd think it doesn't matter - the gun will be equally effective either way. I use the barrel for two reasons: First, accuracy, and second, for the iron sight.
