The Gunner profile combines the rigidity of a government-profile chamber area with a pencil-like taper toward the muzzle, delivering excellent accuracy with reduced front-end weight. This configuration improves balance, reduces fatigue, and enhances maneuverability—making it ideal for defensive use, hunting, or range training.
The barrel is Salt Bath Nitride treated inside and out, ensuring superior corrosion resistance and extended lifespan. A 1:8 twist rate effectively stabilizes a wide range of 7.62x39mm projectiles, including both surplus and modern loads. With 5/8x24 muzzle threading, this barrel is suppressor-ready and compatible with most .30-cal muzzle devices. The M4 barrel extension and standard gas block dimensions ensure full AR-15 platform compatibility.
