The Gunner profile represents a synthesis of two proven barrel profiles—Gov’t and Pencil—combining 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 during shooting, training, or hunting.
Faxon Firearms barrels are manufactured in-house in Cincinnati, Ohio, and represent exceptional value in the market. Each barrel begins with certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless, then undergoes stress relief and air-gauge testing. Barrels receive an 11 degree target crown and progress through quality checks at every manufacturing stage. The finished barrels are Nitride treated and individually inspected for headspace using precision PTG gauges to guarantee superior accuracy.
