It's referring to the barrel of a gun. The gleaming probably means it's new/clean.

As with many words in English the word "barrel" has multiple meanings. In this case it means the barely of a gun. The barely of the gun is the piece that often sticks out the front and is where the bullet travels while inside the gun after being shot.
