Faxon Gunner .338 ARC 12.5in 1:8 AR-15 Barrel

Description

The Faxon Firearms Gunner is a 12.5-inch AR-15 barrel chambered for .338 ARC, finished in Black Nitride over 416-R stainless. Its Gunner profile combines the durability of a government contour with the weight savings of a pencil-style barrel to improve handling and reduce fatigue during extended use. The barrel is button rifled with a 1:8 (5R) twist and uses a pistol-length gas system sized for a .750 gas block. A threaded muzzle and 11-degree target crown help preserve consistent muzzle exit geometry.
