Faxon Firearms 16″ GUNNER 338 ARC Pistol 416R Stainless 5R Nitride Barrel 1:8 Twist
Build a balanced and capable .338 ARC AR-15 with a Match Series barrel designed around Faxon’s lightweight Gunner profile. Machined from 416R stainless steel, this 16-inch barrel combines durability, maneuverability, and precision-focused construction for hunting, range use, and other .338 ARC applications.
The Gunner contour combines characteristics of Government and Pencil profiles, keeping additional material where strength is beneficial while reducing unnecessary forward weight. A pistol-length gas system supports the .338 ARC platform, while the 1:8 right-hand twist provides projectile stabilization across compatible ammunition. The barrel is finished in Black Nitride for added wear and corrosion resistance.
