FAXON DUTY SERIES THREADED BARREL FOR G48 9MM
Faxon Duty Series Threaded Barrel for G48 9mm Nitride
Faxon’s Match Series pistol barrels for Glock® G48 are machined 100% in-house from stress-relieved 416-R stainless steel. These barrels are then given a black Nitride or PVD coating to increase lubricity, barrel life, and resistance to surface wear. All barrels are conventionally rifled to allow a wider range of ammunition to be used, including cast lead. The barrels drop into factory-spec slides with no gunsmithing required. Better-than-factory tolerances ensure a consistent, tighter lockup than OEM.
The Faxon Duty Series Threaded Barrel for Glock® G48 delivers rugged reliability and enhanced versatility in a drop-in upgrade. Featuring a threaded muzzle for suppressors or compensators and a durable black nitride finish, this barrel is built for duty, concealed carry, or custom slimline builds where performance and longevity matter most.
