Faxon’s Gov’t / SOCOM 5.56 AR-15 barrel profile is a mix of the standard M4 profile and a heavy profile - skinny behind the gas block with a thicker O.D. ahead of it for a good balance of rigidity (for accuracy) and manageable weight. Machined from 4150 CMV carbon steel for an excellent balance accuracy and longevity, and QPQ Nitride coated inside and out for amazing corrosion resistance and durability.
