FAXON MATCH SERIES FLUTED THREADED BARREL FOR G43/43X 9MM
FaxonFaxon Match Series Straight Fluted Threaded Barrel for G43/43X 9mm Nitride
Faxon’s Match Series pistol barrels for Glock® G43 are machined 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 Match Series Straight Fluted Threaded Barrel for Glock® G43/43X combines match-grade precision, lightweight design, and suppressor-ready versatility in a slimline drop-in upgrade. Featuring a clean straight fluted profile for reduced weight and improved heat dissipation, a threaded muzzle for compensators or suppressors, and a durable salt bath nitride finish inside and out, this barrel is ideal for concealed carry, competition, or custom slimline builds where reliability and performance are essential.

G43 Barrel
Tolerance is a lot closer than factory spec. Excellent fit.

Top-tier Steel
This is a beautifully machined barrel with a finish that looks like satin (Nitride). Lock-up is very tight. The milling of the hood removes a lot of area that usually comes in contact with the slide, so the action is great. The thread protector is more aggressive than the G19 tear-drop threaded barrel Faxon offers. It is no longer reversible as one side is milled out to accommodate the included o-ring. Barrel is more accurate than I am, as most are, so not much to say there. This is honestly the best pistol barrel that money can buy.
