Stainless Steel Match-Grade Barrel

The 416R stainless steel barrel is built for precision and longevity. The 1:8 twist rate stabilizes standard 5.56 NATO loads and heavier projectiles effectively. At 16 inches, you get a balance between velocity and handling that works for defensive, training, and recreational shooting without excessive length.

Free-Float Handguard with Integrated Rail

The 15-inch free-float M-Lok handguard isolates the barrel from contact, which improves consistency shot to shot. The full-length monolithic Picatinny rail on top gives you mounting flexibility for optics and accessories. M-Lok slots along the sides and bottom accept standard tactical accessories without rail panels.

Complete Lower Assembly Ready to Build

This kit includes the complete mil-spec lower parts kit, carbine buffer tube, 3-ounce buffer, recoil spring, castle nut, and end plate. The 6-position collapsible stock lets you adjust length of pull for different shooting positions and body types. All components are mil-spec and made to standard tolerances.

Carbine Gas System for Balanced Cycling

The carbine-length gas system cycles reliably without over-gassing. The micro low-profile gas block sits low on the barrel and won't interfere with most handguard setups. Stainless steel gas tube resists corrosion and handles high round counts.

Lower receiver not included. BCG and charging handle are not included in the upper assembly, but both are included in this complete kit. Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
