In the world of firearms, balance and precision stand as pillars of excellence. The Gunner profile barrel by Faxon Firearms embodies these principles with a synthesis that draws from history's most revered profiles: the Gov't and Pencil. By merging the robustness of the Gov't profile with the lightweight agility of the Pencil, Faxon's Gunner offers an unparalleled equilibrium that shifts weight towards your body. This thoughtful design minimizes fatigue, providing you with sustained comfort whether you're on a prolonged hunt or engaged in rigorous training.
Constructed in-house at their Cincinnati headquarters, each Faxon barrel is more than just a component—it's a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and uncompromising standards. Their barrels begin life crafted from top-tier materials: certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless Steel, both known for their remarkable strength and resilience.
The journey from raw material to finished product involves rigorous testing at every stage. Each barrel undergoes full stress relief processes to ensure structural integrity under pressure. Precision is further guaranteed through air-gauge testing and crowned with an 11-degree target crown—a feature designed explicitly for superior accuracy.
Nitride finishing enhances durability while maintaining optimal performance characteristics. Before leaving Faxon's facility, each barrel faces one final scrutiny: individual headspace verification using precise PTG gauges ensures that what reaches your hands meets exacting specifications without compromise.
Faxon Firearms doesn't just manufacture barrels; they craft reliability into every inch—offering you not only value but also peace of mind knowing your firearm will perform when it matters most.
