DPMS DP-15 Shortacle Features The DPMS DP-15 Shortacle is built around a 10.5 chrome moly vanadium steel barrel with a nitride coating 1:7 twist rate M4 barrel extension carbine-length gas system and 1/2x28 threaded muzzle finished with an A2 flash hider for a complete suppressor-compatible muzzle setup. The full-auto profile bolt carrier group features a shot-peened mil-spec Carpenter No. 158 steel bolt with a gas key hardened to USGI specifications fastened with Grade 8 screws and staked per mil-spec for maximum reliability under hard use. The factory-installed Vortex Sparc II red dot provides an immediate precise aiming solution right out of the box without additional purchases. The DP-15 Shortacle compact 5.56 AR pistol is built on a forged 7075-T6 aluminum lower marked MULTI for caliber with a hard coat anodized finish mil-spec single-stage fire control group A2 pistol grip and CAR-15 Blade pistol stabilizing brace on a six-position 7075 buffer tube for a compact stabilized shooting platform. The 9.5 lightweight M-LOK handguard and low-profile gas block keep the overall profile lean and maneuverable for close-quarters and vehicle-based applications. The forged 7075-T6 A3 upper is machined to mil-spec and hard coat anodized manufactured in the USA by a mil-spec manufacturer. The DPMS DP-15 platform is built on decades of AR-15 manufacturing experience combining mil-spec components and time-tested direct impingement reliability in a compact pistol format purpose-built for shooters who want AR-15 performance in a maneuverable brace-stabilized package. The 10.5 barrel strikes an ideal balance between velocity retention and overall compactness for a 5.56 NATO pistol delivering meaningful terminal performance from defensive and hunting ammunition while maintaining a footprint that handles naturally in tight spaces. With the factory Vortex Sparc II mil-spec bolt carrier group and complete pistol brace setup included the DP-15 Shortacle is one of the most complete and ready-to-run compact AR pistol packages available at any price point.
