Faxon® Duty Series Threaded Barrel for Glock® G48 | 9mm | Black Nitride
Duty-Grade Performance with Threaded Versatility
The Faxon® Duty Series Threaded Barrel for Glock® G48 delivers rugged reliability, improved durability, and suppressor-ready performance in a true drop-in upgrade. Precision-machined in-house from stress-relieved 4150 CMV steel, this barrel is built for consistent function and long service life in concealed carry, duty, and training applications.
Drop-In Fit with Improved Lockup
Designed for factory Glock® G48 slides, this barrel installs without gunsmithing. Tighter-than-OEM tolerances promote a more consistent lockup while maintaining reliable cycling with factory recoil systems and a wide range of ammunition.
Black Nitride Finish for Maximum Durability
The black nitride finish enhances surface hardness, corrosion resistance, and lubricity both inside and out. This treatment supports smooth operation and extended barrel life under hard-use conditions.
Threaded Muzzle for Suppressors and Compensators
Featuring 1/2×28 threads, this barrel is compatible with a wide range of 9mm suppressors, compensators, and muzzle devices. The threaded design adds versatility while maintaining the slim profile required for G48 platforms.
Conventional Rifling for Ammunition Flexibility
The barrel utilizes conventional button rifling with a 1:10 twist rate, allowing safe use with jacketed, plated, and cast lead ammunition. This ensures reliable performance across both defensive and training loads.
