Overview

This AR-style pistol is set up for shooters who want a compact 5.56 platform with a mix of Anderson Manufacturing and Daniel Defense components. Chambered in 5.56 NATO and configured as a semi-automatic pistol, it suits range sessions and other applications where a shorter, easier-to-handle firearm is preferred. The black matte finish gives it a clean, understated look, while the good used condition means it shows normal handling wear. A case is not included, so it is best considered for buyers focused on the firearm itself rather than a packaged setup.

Pros

  • 10-inch barrel offers a compact, maneuverable profile.
  • Daniel Defense upper paired with an Anderson Manufacturing lower.
  • Black matte finish provides a clean, low-glare appearance.
  • Good used condition with normal cosmetic signs of handling.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is a used firearm in good condition, so normal cosmetic wear should be expected even though it is described as fully functional.
  • It is sold without a case, so storage and transport will need to be arranged separately.
  • The 10-inch barrel and pistol-format AR platform make it compact, but that also means it is not a full-length rifle setup.
  • The build combines an Anderson Manufacturing lower with a Daniel Defense upper, so buyers should evaluate the mixed-component configuration rather than assume a factory-matched package.
