    That is one of the things that I like about the Faxon barrels. Even though they are a moderately priced mfg, they disclose a good amount of information about how they are made, spec'd, etc.

The Gunner profile is better than the DSG "Gov't" IMO. If you shop around you may be able to find a discount on the Faxon. I backordered one through Brownells at a decent discount.
    A pleasure to be mentioned. Let us know how we can help!

    As someone soon to be in the barrel market, from a sales perspective, your doing it right. Open with info, and here for questions, but not pushing anything. I'll be considering you moving forward (I wasn't before). Keep it up.

    Sorry for thread drift - no dsg info, but curious as well.

    Having some of your barrels in stock would be awesome as I’d love buy one. I’ve been checking your website for months. At this point I’d go for any Gov't/Socom Profile AR15 Barrel, 556 Nato, Pinned Gas Block From 7.5 to 11.5. Yes I know different barrel length are better for different applications. Primary purpose for this build would be home defense I would prefer a 10.5 or 11.5 but I suspect could have some fun with a 7.5. With the greatest straight line shot in my home being under 85 feet it may even provide adequate stopping power. Of course I’d defer to your expertise for any pistol length barrel you have in stock. Including a different profile.

    Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee

    He hasn't worked for faxon in like 2 years. Their online presence really dropped after he left, it seems like their quality did as well.

    Papa bear I believe had a pretty bad experience with them as well as some at the other site. If I wanted a nitride barrel in that price range I would be looking at BA or Rosco. American defense sells criterion nitride barrels as well as black river tactical and they have some really good profiles.

    Not sure if faxon is still the OEM for BRT, but I bet Clint would have some better qa/qc in place than them
