Check out one of the standards and one of the most lightweight rifle kits in our catalog with a barrel and twist rate that are more accepting of a wider array of bullet weights. This mil-spec AR kit comes to you chambered in 5.56mm NATO, the same caliber as our military's rifles. It comes with an ultra-light, skeletonized handguard that looks great and feels even better. It's all paired with mil-spec lower parts and an M16 profile BCG. And a 1:8 twist rate in the barrel means you can shoot some of the lighter or heavier grain of 5.56mm rounds.
What’s Included
This kit is not a firearm. It includes an assembled upper receiver, lower parts kit, and buffer assembly with buttstock. This kit does not include a stripped lower receiver (the firearm component). Pair this rifle kit with an AR-15 80% lower receiver and AR-15 jig to fabricate a receiver, sold separately.
Here's the beginner's guide to 80% lowers.
