Faxon Match Series Straight Fluted Barrel for M&P® Shield/Shield Plus, 416-R, TiN PVD, Std. Length, Non-Threaded
FaxonFitment note: Faxon Firearms M&P Shield barrels are not drop-in compatible with M&P Shield pistols that have a Loaded Chamber Indicator lever installed (such as the California compliant variation). If you have a pistol with the LCI lever installed (or are unsure if your pistol is drop-in compatible) please contact our Customer Service Team for more information: customerservice@faxonfirearms.com
Faxon's Match Series Pistol Barrels for Smith and Wesson/M&P 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.

Fit M&P Shield Plus
I got the TiN coated barrel for my MP Shield Plus to replace its ported barrel. I shot 250 rounds to break it in. Performed flawless. The only reason I am giving it 4 star is because the barrel scratched heavily and I wish I had purchased dark color. Other than that it is awesome.

FAXON M&P SHIELD BARREL, MATCH SERIES, 9MM, 416-R, TIN COATED, NON-THREADED
Purchased this for my M&P Shield CA Compliant pistol and just realized we have an issue. Am going to have to figure this out now... It's a pretty barrel, good quality.

Take my money
I bought a Faxon barrel for my Glock 17. My accuracy went way up. So I figured it would help with my Shield 9mm. Yep! I oiled it a bit and just dropped it in. Racked it a bunch of times. It fit and locked up so perfect. It’s shooting much better then the stock barrel and it looks amazing. Stop thinking and start shooting.

M&P Shield Barrel
REALLY solid metal work, looks phenomenal, accuracy was on point, and very quick shipping. My only feedback I have is this barrel will not fit on CA compliant shields due to the "loaded chamber indicator". Unless I missed it somewhere I don't believe faxon stated that anywhere before purchasing.

S&W shield barrel replacement
I purchased this barrel because of the great reputation Faxon has. I had never purchased anything from Faxon in the past, but I can assure you this barrel will not be the last product I buy. The fit was perfect. The accuracy was phenomenal. I replaced my ported Performance Center barrel, because having a defensive handgun with a ported barrel has proven very loud in the past.
