The Faxon Superfinished 5.56 Gunner Lightweight BCG with Chameleon PVD carrier & gas key, 9310 MPI bolt, and nitride treatment represents a precision-engineered solution for shooters demanding reduced reciprocating mass without compromise. At just 8.5 ounces complete, this lightweight carrier retains critical functionality including forward assist serrations, compatibility with dust covers, and an M16 pattern carrier that maintains the full-auto trip sear for full-auto and many modern multi-stage trigger systems.
The Faxon Superfinished 5.56 Gunner Lightweight Bolt Carrier Group – Chameleon PVD is a premium reduced-mass BCG engineered to deliver fast, smooth cycling without compromising strength or reliability. The carrier and gas key receive a Chameleon PVD coating, providing enhanced wear resistance and a unique color-shifting finish. Faxon’s proprietary Superfinish on the carrier body reduces friction and fouling, resulting in smoother operation and easier cleaning—especially valuable in high-round-count or suppressed rifles. The bolt and all carrier components are salt bath nitrided, and the nitride process seals components against corrosion while making them fantastically wear resistant.
Faxon recommends the use of an adjustable gas block with this Gunner Lightweight BCG for proper function and optimal tuning. Chameleon PVD coloration will vary, and no two Chameleon PVD products have the exact same coloring due to the nature of the coating process. Faxon Firearms products are backed by our Lifetime Guarantee to the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship.
