Overview
Built as a semi-automatic rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO, this AM-15 is set up for hunters and shooters who want a straightforward, modern platform with a 16-inch barrel and adjustable stock. The matte black finish and handguard grip give it a clean, practical layout, while the low-profile gas system supports a streamlined profile. It comes with one magazine and is offered without a case, so it suits buyers looking for a ready-to-transfer rifle rather than a bundled package. As with any firearm purchase, transfer through an FFL and compliance with all applicable laws are required.
