Really outstanding barrel
Pretty much everything I’ve gotten from Faxon has been excellent and this barrel is no exception. It functioned flawlessly with a Faxon 9mm BCG. I loved it so much I bought another, shorter barrel.

Great 9mm PCC Barrel
Very nice light barrel with a slimmer profile than most other 16" 9mm PCC Barrels. Accurate as well. I'd def buy theses again for future 9mm PCC builds
