The Faxon Duty Series 16″ Gunner .308 Winchester barrel is built from 4150 CMV steel with QPQ nitride finishing, delivering duty-ready performance from a manufacturer based in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio. The Gunner profile balances strength where you need it with reduced forward weight for faster handling, making this barrel ideal for shooters who prioritize both maneuverability and durability in a compact package. The mid-length gas system delivers smoother cycling and a more controlled recoil impulse in a 16″ .308 build.
This barrel is button rifled and features salt bath nitride (QPQ) treatment inside and out to resist corrosion and wear in harsh conditions and high-round-count training. Standard 5/8×24 muzzle threads support common .30-cal muzzle devices and suppressors, while the .750″ gas block journal is compatible with most common low-profile gas blocks. The barrel is backed by the Faxon Lifetime Guarantee, reflecting the company’s confidence in its precision manufacturing and quality control standards.
