The Gunner profile represents a hybrid design combining the best qualities of two proven profiles: the Gov’t and Pencil. Faxon’s Gunner profile merges the durability of the Gov’t profile with the weight savings and maneuverability of the Pencil profile. By shifting the rifle’s balance toward the shooter’s body, the Gunner profile reduces fatigue and supports sustained shooting, training, or hunting throughout the day.
Faxon Firearms barrels are manufactured in-house in Cincinnati, Ohio, and represent exceptional value. Each barrel is fully stress relieved, air-gauge tested, and 11 degree target crowned for superior accuracy. Faxon begins with premium materials—either certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless—and subjects each barrel to rigorous testing at every manufacturing stage. Barrels are finished in Nitride and undergo final inspection, with individual headspace verification performed using precision PTG gauges. This attention to quality ensures reliable performance training, or hunting.
