Faxon 16″ Pencil Profile AR15 Barrel, 5.56 NATO w/ Integral Slim Flash Hider

The Faxon 16″ Pencil Profile AR15 Barrel, 5.56 NATO w/ Integral Slim Flash Hider blends ultra-lightweight design with enhanced performance features, making it an ideal choice for shooters who want to reduce front-end weight without compromising durability or functionality. Machined from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium (CMV) steel and treated with a QPQ Nitride finish, this barrel delivers exceptional corrosion resistance, longevity, and smooth operation even under rigorous use.

This model integrates a slim 3-prong flash hider directly into the barrel’s profile, extending its overall length to a legal 16” without needing a separate, pinned muzzle device. The streamlined flash hider design also allows for easy installation or removal of low-profile gas blocks without interference—offering flexibility during assembly and maintenance.

The barrel is configured with a Mid-Length gas system and features a 0.625” gas block journal, perfectly matched for optimal cycling and reduced recoil impulse. Each barrel is manufactured entirely in-house from premium gun-barrel-quality bar-stock and is headspaced and individually tested with custom hardened gauges to ensure consistency and accuracy.

Faxon’s Pencil profile is among the lightest in the industry, strategically tapering material where possible to minimize weight while preserving structural integrity. This makes it a popular choice for shooters focused on speed, agility, and balance. Trusted by leading firearms manufacturers and custom rifle builders, Faxon Pencil barrels have earned a reputation for their performance under pressure.
