I could listen to Paul all day. So full of good information. When a question is asked, you see the look in his eye asking, "do you really want me to go into detail?" He seems like he's only touching the basics of what he knows.

Very knowledgeable guy. Faxon just earned one more customer!

If I owned a company with a top of the line product this is the man I would want on my staff. He has knowledge and passion and can explain the technology so the customer can make a better decision. Kudos.

Even 5 years later this is gold! Nitride coating, chrome lining, fluting, button rifling, barrel profile and more explanations all in one video! Feeling even better about ordering my Faxon 18" fluted 308 barrel last night.

Excellent content. As a mechanical engineer and a gun enthusiast, I learned a lot and really enjoyed the conversation.

One of the most informative videos i have ever personally seen about barrels. Great job!

Nathan's a cool dude. Super knowledgeable and articulate, learned a ton. Thanks

The fact that this guy didn’t trash the competition rather saying they make great products too made me a customer. Only someone who has confidence in his product says that. I’m buying one.

This video has been the MOST interesting, MOST educational, MOST repeatable viewing I have had the PLEASURE to watch. THERE MUST BE A GOD when faxon came out with the GUNNER profile, I could tell the value of their knowledge and engineering - I knew I could place my TRUST in their products... As of this video I have purchased four (different gas port lengths). ALL BLACK RIFLES MATTER

Extremely informative content. Please publish more in depth content on other products that you sell. An educated buyer is a very happy buyer.

Will absolutely get a Faxon barrel for my next build. Brownells, please keep those pencil/gunner pinned barrel+brake sets in stock! Thanks for the Q&A!

Excellent, for a Marine, he is remarkably articulate.

Just got a gunner and a pencil barrel for a upper build. cant wait! Love Faxon!

I have a 14.5" pencil barrel. Very accurate, it does get hot but the barrel doesn't walk. Great value and great support ( online).

One of the most informative, and well presented videos I've seen on KZfaq! I actually bought one of your 9mm barrels from Brownells several hours BEFORE I found this video... how's that for a stroke of luck.

Thank you this video explain barrels better than any other video I’ve watched, thank you again for taking the time God Bless

These live videos are awesome - thanks!!

One of the best videos in Brownell's. Thanks alot.

Just found this video. This was awesome. Answered all of my questions, and will be purchasing a Faxon 308 barrel for my next build. Subbed so I don't miss any ore of these types of videos.

Fantastic, superior ballistic and barrel dynamics explanations without any BS!

Amazing video. So much detail from highly a knowledgeable expert. Love this and gives me a lot of confidence in Faxon barrels. I don't have one but now I want one.

Thank you for this video, it is a very informative and very clear video that I have ever seen on barrels. It makes it clear on what to look for when purchasing either a barrel or complete rifle, and takes away any guess work that you might have before buying.

Wow, I’ve learned so much watching this. Very grateful for all the information provided by brownells and Faxon, I will definitely be buying a Faxon barrel for my first build.

What a wonderful wealth of information guys! Very well presented!

This is an amazing crash course in barrels

Thank you so much for such a great in-depth understanding of so many things in FAXON BARREL'S!! 😉🇺🇸👏👍

Super good information on barrels. I really learned a lot. Thank you.

Thanks for the video, it is long but it is worth the time. I just ordered myself a new Faxon barrel.

I appreciate all that information from Nathan. I just purchased a 20” flame fluted faxon barrel from Brownell’s. And I’m also going to be purchasing a 3 pin low profile gas block also. Idk why I didn’t get that when I completed my order with the barrel. I think it was because I was looking at all the other Magpol stuff I plan on putting on my rifle. So I got a little side tracked. At any rate thanks again Nathan from Faxon and Paul from Brownell’s. For this video and for supporting and supplying all of the United States of American citizens with parts for our favorite amendment and hobby!!!!!!!!!

the gun community, always the first to show respect to their competitors

Fantastic video! Extremely informative.

Good! Please keep going, one day you make it big

WOW..learned a great deal. thanks for the presentation.

59:15 that’s the clearest explanation I’ve heard of what is a “throat” and a “lead” in a barrel.

awesome! good job, both of you.

Great q&a session... Was considering getting a faxon barrel... Lots of things explained about them

This guy from faxon is extremely knowledgeable. Great video.

Love these videos and great and informative for a learning gunsmith

good stuff

My BCM ar15 now has a 14.5 inch faxon gunner barrel in 223wylde with 5R rifling stainless nitride. And the difference in accuracy from the stock barrel is absolutely shocking . Best decision I made and it’s even gassed properly with perfect ejection with stock buffer from bcm . My factory barrel was gassed to the extreme

Faxon should give this guy a raise he knows his shit

Like a cup of coffee....Eye opening, indeed....

Great video I have the 300 blackout flame flurer barrel I love it

“Quality, innovation, service” are fine goals for any endeavor.

Excellent video............

Own a 9mm faxon barrel. Top quality, accuracy!!!

I use Faxons barrels on my builds excellent quality

Damn this guys eloquent.

Awesome info!

I went with a 223 wylde 16 inch stainless steel pencil barrel on one of my ar15's It shoots good and very lightweight

This guy is Incredible.

Looking to build my first AR15. Doing a lot of research. There is lot to learn. This may be my one and only build. Tired of buying off the shelf Firearms. Want the best of what I can afford.

True I haven’t seen any pencils 6.5 grandel barrel

I'm curious as to the effect of the WWSD project on their sales, especially their pencil barrels.

204 Ruger would be an awesome Barrel I agree

This question is directed toward Nathanial. About a year ago I purchased a 16" GUNNER, 5.56 NATO, Mid-Length, 4150 QPQ barrel, order number 17416. Over all I am very pleased with my purchase, However I do have one small problem, when a round chambers the bullet is scored by the back of the lock lugs as evident by small deposit of copper. I thought after time and use this issue would go away, it has not. I have tried many different types of ammo, and magazines with no luck. My question is should I polish this problem area as many people seem to cure this problem with some of the more economical barrels? If so do you have any recommended media, tools, or methods for best results with my particular Faxon barrel. Thanks in advance, Benjamin

Colt's cap and ball revolvers were progressive twist

Entry level 3 gunner, any difference I would notice with a pencil vs GUNNER barrel? Looking to save weight, but also want to mitigate whip and heat if it effects consistency.

Does the 10.5" SOCOM 5.56 P/N 15A58C10NSQ have history of headspace and/or accuracy issues?

Just got to the section of video discussing 9mm barrel. NOTE: I wanted a barrel for my 9mm build - but put build on the back burner cause only barrels for sale had 1/2X28 muzzle threads. "NO DEAL" -Thanks FAXON for thinking SAFE With barrel also purchased BCG (best $ in market). WHO WILL GUARD THE GUARDS

I'm currently building an AR, and I am really interested in a Faxon 18" gunner. I was wondering if you guys thought that the adjustable gas block is necessary, or if the regular low profile gas block was good enough. I am planning to suppress it if the Hearing Protection Act passes, so the possibility of suppressing it is a big consideration for me.

What grease or oil is best for protecting the bore of a rifle or shotgun for long term storage? Cosmoline, perhaps? And how to apply it uniformly and thick enough? (I will clean it out before firing again.)

interesting information about faxon

So what would it take to use S304 stainless for barrels?

Whelp....I know what barrel company I am gonna buy from now on.....Ordered a 6.5 Grendel barrel! Hoping the performance matches the hype!

Question for Nathan. Does Faxon plan on creating a slim linear comp for pinned and welded 14.5 barrels. I'm not a fan of brakes as the concussion can be annoying to fellow range shooters(I find it annoying and I don't want to be THAT GUY). Also love these super informative Q&A's. Thanks

Lothar Walther and Hawk Hill for the WIN!!! Play some Skynyrd man!!!!

I'm familiar with qpq and what it means. Would QPQPQ be better than QPQ?

Virtually all high end button barrel makers either hone or lead lap before rifling.

I purchases a Faxon pencil barrel recently. Everything looks good except the crown. It looks and feels like it was crowned with a THREADING tool! I know what a good crown should look like. There should NOT be a burr on the edge of the crown. Fortunately, I'm a gunsmith and have my own 14-40 lathe and I know how to cut a nice crown. But I shouldn't have to. That said, Faxon isn't the only barrel I've seen that came from the factory with a crappy crown.

Will there be a multitude of pistol barrels eventually released? And if so, will there be offerings for smaller hand guns such as the LCP's, DB9, CPX's, and others?

Cameraman isnt a gun guy, or at least not an AR guy. Guy shows the feedramp of an upper, and camera aims for somethin else. 😄. But i really enjoyed this very informative vid. Thank you

and is a bull barrel just a very thick barrel and does size of caliber change the size of a bull barrel by allot or a little ? can you take a used 223 barrel ,,like a bull barrel but worn out and can it be redrilled out as a 308 barrel ? can you do a titanium nitride barrel ,that gold looking nitride as they do drill bits with that stuff and it seems to be pretty hard wearing ?

Hello, Is there a difference in the molecular level of your gun barrels between a bolt action or a full auto barrel

It is mainly used on black powder pistols/revolvers.

Question for you guys. I built an AR with premium parts such as wilson combat match grade barrel and a lantac bolt carrier group. When it came to checking headspace, i did not close on the No Go gauge as it shouldn’t but when it came to the go gauge. The bolt doesn’t close either. O used another bolt by src and it still wont close on the go gauge. When i shot it do to an armorers advice stating that it didnt matter there was severe wear on both of my bolts lugs and the rifle would not cycle. it would shoot the round but not extract the round or load the next. I disassembled the gas system thinking that the gas block was not set right but after reinstalling it the same issue occurred. All this happened within 50 rounds

I have a 357 magnum and it's one my dad left me when he died and it's been shoot a lot it doesn't shoot straight anymore can you clean the rifling up or rebore it

What is your opinion of the Shmit Ruben rifels

Is brownells going to carry the 14.5 pinned 3 prong faxon barrel?

Quality of material/steel

are buttons pulled or pushed ? and is cold hammer forged barrels drilled first then hammered ? and does the drill hole drill straight, like perfectly straight and if the barrel is not straight at the end of all the process it goes thru ,say rite at the finished product and you find it's not perfectly straight can it be straightened out ?

Lol you are holding my barrel Mr faxon guy 🤣😂🤣 14.5 pinned pencil with 3 prong brake

What's better for chamber corrosion resistant Nitride or Chrome?

@44:00 "AR-15 is Barbie for men, right?" LOL

How is whitworth rifling done and where can I find a barrel maker that does it?

I was wondering if Faxton had any advice for someone who wants to start I firearms company is out of sort

What is the accuracy I can expect from the 308 match series 20 inch.

One small problem on a great barrel. I got the nickel extension on my faxon barrel and the color code didn't adhere to the slippery np3

Do they manufacture hk91/g3 barrels

Do you make other barrels like for bolt action

Good day where can I get more info on making gunbarrels regarding the tools and equipment needed and the different twist rates and so on and where to buy the tools and equipment I'm living in south africa and can't find info on it

38:30 good question

Advantage of fluted barre! I

Can laser be used to 'drill' the bore?

I know I am late, but I am looking for a 10mm AR barrel with a star chamber similar to CMMG, but with a 10" barrel length

18 and 20 inch 7.62 x 39 Barrel?

Where is the FLORIDA tour stop Brownells?

does faxon do a 223 wild barrel ?

If I use a 18 inch barrel what is the longest hand guard I can put on it? Or what do you suggest

HOOAH!
