Faxon Match Series Barrels for Glock G48
Faxon has designed and crafted the Match Series pistol barrels specifically for the Glock G48. Made from stress-relieved 416-R stainless steel and machined entirely in-house, these barrels are coated with either black Nitride or PVD to enhance lubricity, barrel life, and surface wear resistance.
The conventionally rifled barrels allow for a wider variety of ammunition, including cast lead, and fit snugly into factory-spec slides without requiring a gunsmith for installation. Thanks to their better-than-factory tolerances, they provide a more consistent and tighter lockup than the OEM barrels.
