The Faxon Firearms AR-15 Barrel (brand part number 15A58M14NGQ) is a 14.5-inch 5.56 NATO barrel cut to Faxon’s lighter Gunner profile, keeping weight at just 1.3 pounds for a faster-handling rifle without giving up accuracy. Finished in black matte with a 1:8 twist, it stabilizes the full range of common 5.56/.223 bullet weights and runs a mid-length gas system sized for a 0.625-inch gas block, timed for smooth, reliable cycling. The muzzle comes threaded to accept standard-pattern devices, and Faxon finishes the crown at 11 degrees to protect accuracy.
