Overview
Built on a familiar AR-style platform, this semi-automatic rifle is set up for shooters who want a practical, configurable option for range use, training, or general sporting applications. Chambered in 5.56 NATO and fitted with a 16-inch barrel, it pairs a carbine-length gas system with a 1:8 twist rate for a versatile setup suited to a broad range of commonly used bullet weights. The 15-inch free-float handguard adds accessory mounting space with a full-length top rail and M-LOK slots at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, while the installed Magpul grip and buttstock provide a more refined feel than basic mil-spec furniture. It is sold as the rifle and magazine only, with no case included.
