Manufacturer details
Faxon’s 7.62x39 Gunner Profile Barrel matches their Government barrel profile from the breech to the gas block, then tapers shifts to a lightweight pencil profile for weight savings that won’t compromise accuracy. Removing weight from the front of the 7.62x39 Gunner Profile Barrel ensures enhances your rifle’s maneuverability, while extra metal at the rear maximizes heat resistance and diminishes barrel "whip". The result is a balanced, mobile, and maneuverable barrel that can handle full-auto fire and is suppressor rated.
Machined from 4150 chrome-moly-vanadium carbon steel, the Faxon Firearms 7.62x39 Gunner Profile Barrel is button rifled with a nitride finish for corrosion resistance. From plinking to competition shooting to tactical operations, Faxon’s "AR-47" barrel can do it all.
