Fantastic accuracy
I used the 10.5" barrel in a 9mm AR pistol build. Of note, because of the design of the chamber, this is similar in length to a 9.5" barrel, the chamber is considered part of the barrel length which adds that inch to the measurements, but not to the length of your gun. I used the Faxon 9mm Bolt Carrier Group with this on a colt-smg 9mm setup. With a very rudimentary bore-sighting the night before, this barrel drilled shot after shot, rapidly, into an inch grouping at 75 feet (the max distance possible at the range I was at) using flip up iron sights. I was sure I would have to fine tune my sights, but it was dead on to the laser bore-sight. Ran a variety of ammo through it from match grade to hollow point, to finally some basic Winchester white box ammo, all if it went right into the center of the target. Feeding was smooth as well. Extremely happy with the performance of this barrel.

Accurate, Light, and Strong
Can't say enough good about this Faxon Firearms 9mm Rifle Barrel. I got the 8.5" barrel to replace the PSA Gen 4 upper/barrel because I really needed a 1/2x28 thread to fit the VG6 Muzzle Break that I truly wanted on my pistol. Rather than buying a thread adapter for $75, why not just upgrade the entire barrel for $106 and I'm so glad that I did. The weight decrease is significantly noticeable. It feels to be about 2.5oz lighter but when you actually put it on the pistol and hold it up, it's feels 2# lighter because it's more maneuverable.
Accuracy is 100% and didn't change after 500 ro...

Great Barrel; Plug and Play
Bought this because the previous barrel didn’t clear the hand guard for my suppressor. Took 5 minutes to replace and shoots very accurately.

- Price
- brand
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes
faxon 9mm barrel
Good quality as you expect from faxon at an affordable price. This will work perfectly with my new suppressor. I have the integrated brake barrel too. It shoots same whole groups @25yards.
Would recommend: Yes
Nicely made
This thing feels solid cant wait to shoot.. it was packaged perfectly with a nice warning label.
Would recommend: Yes
Good Barrel
Faxon makes an amazing barrel. 10.5 is a good size if you’re trying to build a AR9
Would recommend: Yes

Functions Amazing
Barrel took a bit longer than expected to arrive. When I received it and opened it there was some rust which I was able to clean with ballistol. The taper into the chamber appears to have less of an angle than the old barrel I replaced it with however after testing I can confirm reliability as it functioned perfectly for hollow points and fmj.
Would recommend: Yes
Faxon Firearms 9mm SAAMI Rifle Barrel
Such a great product; availability and service from Optics is always reliable.
Would recommend: Yes
Won't feed hollow points
I just installed this on my Aero Precision 9mm PCC. There isn't enough of a feed ramp to allow hollowpoints to feed properly. It jams every time. Pretty disappointing coming from Faxon. Looks like I'll need to send it off to a blacksmith and have them modify it to the way it should've been from the factory.
Pros:
- None
Cons:
- Lack of a good feed ramp
- Won't feed hollow points
Would recommend: No

Two rusty bores
I ordered two of these and they both arrived with plastic caps on both ends. Both bores were completely free of oil/corrosion inhibitor and were rusty, with rust at the muzzle end visible with a bore light. One of them looks like it might shoot OK if given the chance, on the other the rust looks substantial enough to affect accuracy. Still, I expect new barrels to arrive without visible rust.
They appear to be well manufactured but they do not appear to have been packaged well. A quick blast of corrosion inhibitor or Rem Oil before they were packaged at the factory would have saved these barrels. Also, it's usually not a good idea to plug up both ends of a barrel in storage. I've seen a number of barrels ruined this way. Any humidity that was in the air when they were plugged becomes trapped there, just waiting to condense and catalyze rust formation when the barrel inevitably gets cold during storage. A better approach is to seal them in plastic bags with ample desiccant.
