Davidson Defense Teammate w/Gauntlet Arms Brace 5-inch 45ACP Freefloat Tubular M-Lok Pistol Full Build Kit

Teammate w-Gauntlet Arms Brace 5-Inch .45 ACP Freefloat Tubular M-LOK Pistol Full Build Kit

This is an AR-45 pistol full build kit chambered in .45 ACP, centered on a 5-inch slim profile 4150 CrMoV steel barrel with a Parkerized finish, a 1-16 twist rate, and a 37-64x28 thread pitch specific to the .45 ACP bore diameter. The Vertex enhanced pistol caliber AR-15 billet upper receiver anchors the front end, paired with a 4.2-inch tubular M-LOK aluminum handguard with a suppressor ready 1.77-inch internal diameter that keeps the front end compact and suppressor-capable. A PCC AR bolt assembly for .45 ACP and an M4 Mil-Spec charging handle complete the upper side. The lower completion package covers the full internal lower component group, a heavy-duty pistol buffer tube, an AR-15 9mm carbine buffer, a standard carbine recoil spring made in the USA, and a full rear hardware group. A Gauntlet Arms black polymer stabilizing brace closes out the rear end. Everything above the lower receiver is addressed in one kit. Lower receiver not included.

Upper Assembly

The Vertex enhanced pistol caliber AR-15 billet upper receiver is purpose-built for the pistol caliber AR platform, addressing the dimensional and design requirements of the AR-45 that differ from a standard AR-15 upper receiver. The 5-inch slim profile 4150 CrMoV steel barrel brings a Parkerized finish and a 1-16 twist rate to the .45 ACP chamber, threaded at 37-64x28, a thread pitch specific to this bore diameter. The 4.2-inch tubular M-LOK aluminum handguard wraps the barrel from the upper receiver along the forend with a suppressor ready design built around a 1.77-inch internal diameter, giving the builder clearance to run a suppressor under the handguard without interference. M-LOK slots run along the handguard body for accessory attachment while keeping the overall front end compact and purposeful on this pistol-length build.

Bolt Assembly and Charging Handle

The included PCC AR bolt assembly is specific to the .45 ACP chambering and is the correct bolt choice for this platform. A standard AR-15 bolt carrier group is not compatible with the .45 ACP AR-45 platform, and this bolt assembly addresses that platform-specific requirement directly. The M4 Mil-Spec charging handle pairs with the bolt assembly inside the upper receiver to complete the upper interior and finish the front end of the build.

Lower Completion Components

The complete Mil-Spec AR-15 lower parts kit covers the full internal lower component group, including the fire control group, magazine catch, bolt catch, and all associated pins and springs. The heavy-duty pistol buffer tube for AR-15 and AR style pistols, AR-15 9mm carbine buffer, and standard AR-15 carbine recoil spring made in the USA form the buffer system at the rear of the lower, matched to the pistol platform and the blowback operation of the .45 ACP AR-45 build. The AR-15 M16 Mil-Spec receiver end plate and AR-15 carbine castle nut lock the buffer tube down at the rear of the lower receiver. The Gauntlet Arms black polymer stabilizing brace fits over the pistol buffer tube and closes out the rear end of the build.

Muzzle Device

The KAK Micro Flash Can threads onto the .578x28 muzzle end of the barrel, a thread pitch specific to this .45 ACP muzzle device configuration. The compact micro flash can profile keeps the overall muzzle end tight and low-profile on this pistol-length build. The included black 5-8-inch crush washer seats at the barrel shoulder and completes the muzzle hardware for this kit.
