The more aggressive knurling \"bites\" into the palms, providing a secure grip even without chalk or chalk gloves. The center knurl is also pronounced and supports the bar on the upper back during heavy squats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eV2 Improvements: Bushings and Surface\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2 brings revised bushing systems for smoother sleeve rotation and improved surface treatment for better durability and corrosion protection. The result is a bar that feels the same after years of intensive training as it did on day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOptimized for heavy compound exercises\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSquats, deadlifts, bench presses, military presses – the Gunner V2 is built for heavy compound exercises in strength training. The bar stiffness is deliberately designed for power training: stiff enough for controlled lifting, without the elastic behavior of a weightlifting bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is the Gunner Barbell V2 for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gunner V2 is the bar for powerlifters, experienced strength athletes, and anyone who relies on maximum grip security during heavy training and doesn't want to compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.20 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 mm (Olympic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnurling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aggressive, center knurl present\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Force USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Gunner's knurling suitable for high-volume training?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aggressive knurling can put more strain on the hands during very high volume (many repetitions).
