Faxon Gunner profile AR-15 rifle barrels. Gunner profile transitions from a Government profile extension to the .625 inch gas block, then tapers to a pencil profile toward the muzzle. Lightweight front reduces weight and heat buildup, improving whip resistance. Made in-house from 4150 CMV steel, stress-relieved, air-gauge tested, and finished with a nitride coating. Twist rate is 1:8 and caliber is 5.56x45 NATO. Available in multiple lengths to suit different builds.
