CINCINNATI, OH) - Faxon Firearms, a Cincinnati, Ohio based manufacturer of quality rifle and pistol components, is excited to announce their new line of production slides for M&P Pistols.
Faxon Firearms will initially launch with the Patriot and Hellfire slide profiles. All are machined completely in-house from 17-4 Stainless Steel, accept Glock sights, and have Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) finishes. Enhanced front, rear, and top serrations are strategically located to aid in slide manipulation.

All slides come with an optics-ready cut. Each profile is available with either a Trijicon RMR cut or a multi-optics mounting system that accepts the VortexVenom, Vortex Viper, or Burris FastFire. Both the Patriot and Hellfire have machined posts in the optic cuts for optic locating and recoil absorption.

“We’re excited to continue our growth into the pistol market with our M&P Patriot and Hellfire slides. Manufacturing slides completely in-house from bar stock gives us the ability to create new profiles and optics mounting solutions that many other companies simply can’t achieve.

Coupled with our Match Series pistol barrels, we really have a strong and innovative offering for our customers,” said Bob George, Director of Sales and Business Development at Faxon Firearms.

Both the Patriot and Hellfire slides will be on display at the Faxon Firearms booth at the NRA Annual Meeting, booth #3108.

We may potentially do a 5" version, but I'm not sure when that would be. Once these start shipping we'll be jumping straight into Glock

Oooooh, looks great and am looking forward to getting one or two (if you make them for compacts as well)!

Will these be sold as completed slides or will we need to build them up? Sorry if a dumb question.

We'll be offering them both as a stripped slide that you will need to swap your parts over to from your current M&P, or a complete slide that you will need to transfer your barrel and recoil spring from your factory slide.

Wrapping up final testing now. I'd estimate 4-6 weeks. Keep an eye on Rainier Arms, they may be doing a pre-order.
