A more ergonomic and maneuverable .308 AR kit.
The AR-10 platform was always big, bulky, heavy, unwieldy. That ain't the case, here: This 16"-barreled "shorty" LR-308 rifle kit solves the problem with a minimum legal-length barrel, and a unique "short" .308 buffer that allows your .308 lower receiver to use an AR-15 buffer tube and stock.
This kit sacrifices no performance, thanks to its quality, precision-machined 4150 CMV barrel and precisely cut billet upper receiver. A right side-charging BCG and handle further improve the ergonomics -- no more archaic rear charging handle, here.
What’s Included
This is not a firearm. It includes an assembled upper receiver, bolt carrier group, and side charging handle.
