Faxon Match Series Flame Fluted® Threaded Barrel for G17 Gen 5 9mm Nitride
Faxon’s Match Series pistol barrels for Glock® G17 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.
Upgrade your G17 Gen 5 with the Faxon Match Series Flame Fluted® Threaded Barrel. This top-of-the-line upgrade is designed for maximum performance and accuracy, with a range of features tailored for serious shooters. Crafted from high-quality stress-relieved 416-R stainless steel, this barrel features a patented flame fluting design that reduces weight and enhances performance. The 1/10 twist rate is ideal for a wide range of ammunition types, and the target crowned muzzle ensures consistent accuracy.
The barrel is finished with black nitride for maximum corrosion resistance and durability. It is threaded for easy installation of a wide range of muzzle devices and is compatible with the Faxon EXOS-533 Pistol Compensator (sold separately). Made in-house in Faxon's Greater Cincinnati, Ohio facility under ISO:9001 and AS:9100 certifications, this barrel is backed by the Faxon Lifetime Guarantee.

Glock 17 Gen 5, Threaded Barrel
Another threaded barrel from Faxon to go in my Glock 17 Gen 5. It dropped in nicely, getting optic cut this week. I expect it to run flawlessly as my other (2) Faxon barrels. Keep up the good work Faxon!
