Warden 11.5-Inch Carbine-Gas 1:8 .223 Wylde AR-15 Free-Float KeyMod Handguard Pistol Full Build Kit, SBR Ready
The Warden SBR Ready Full Build Kit is built around an 11.5-inch .223 Wylde barrel machined from 4140 chrome moly vanadium steel in a government profile, with a carbine-length gas system and a Nitride finish. It is paired with a 10-inch black free-float KeyMod handguard machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and ships with a complete bolt carrier group and a mil-spec quality M4 charging handle. The short barrel keeps the front end compact and quick to handle, and the 1:8 twist suits a wide range of bullet weights in .223 Wylde. Lower receiver is not included, and this kit ships without a brace. Lower parts kit, pistol grip, buffer tube, buffer, recoil spring, castle nut, and end plate details were not supplied with this listing.

Barrel and Gas System
The 11.5-inch barrel is machined from 4140 chrome moly vanadium steel in a government profile and finished in Nitride, a surface treatment that adds hardness and corrosion resistance while leaving a clean, matte black look. Its 1:8 twist rate and .223 Wylde chamber make it suited to a wide range of bullet weights. The barrel runs a carbine-length gas system through a micro low-profile steel gas block sized for the .750-inch barrel diameter, and the low-profile block helps it sit cleanly beneath a free-float handguard. At the muzzle, 1/2x28 threads carry the included AR-15 A2 TPI GI birdcage flash hider.
Upper Receiver and Handguard
The upper receiver is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with M4 feed ramps and an anodized finish, giving it a hard, wear-resistant surface that holds up to regular handling. It is paired with a 10-inch black KeyMod handguard machined from 6061-T6 aluminum. As a free-float design, it leaves the barrel free of handguard contact, and the KeyMod slots give the builder room to mount lights, grips, handstops, and other accessories.
Bolt Carrier Group and Charging Handle
The included complete bolt carrier group is rated for 5.56, .223, .300 Blackout, and .350 Legend, with a carrier machined from 9310 alloy steel and finished in Nitride, a surface treatment that adds hardness and corrosion resistance and helps the carrier stand up to repeated cycling. Paired with it is a mil-spec quality AR-15 M4 charging handle, completing the upper so it is ready to be matched with a compatible lower receiver.
