Key Features
- 16-inch 4150 Chrome-Moly Barrel — This barrel material and length balance accuracy with maneuverability, making it easier for new shooters to handle in the field or at the range.
- Mid-Length Gas System — Smoother cycling and reduced recoil impulse compared to carbine-length systems, which means less felt recoil for youth and smaller-framed shooters.
- 15-inch M-LOK Handguard — Lets you attach accessories like a bipod, light, or vertical grip exactly where you need them, without extra weight or bulk.
- Magpul MOE Carbine Stock and MOE-K Grip — Proven ergonomics that fit most hand sizes, with a rubber overmold for a secure hold, even with sweaty hands.
- 20+1 Round Magazine Capacity — Enough rounds for a full practice session without constant reloading, plus compatibility with common SR25-pattern mags.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for families introducing new shooters to .308, youth shooters graduating from .223, and beginners looking for a reliable AR-10 platform. It works for sport shooting, plinking, and light hunting without breaking the bank.
Pros and Cons
Pros: Affordable entry into .308 ARs, reliable mid-length gas system, Magpul furniture fits most shooters, M-LOK handguard for customization, 20-round magazine standard.
Cons: The trigger is a mil-spec single-stage, which can feel heavy for precision work — many shooters upgrade to a Geissele or Timney trigger later. Also, the factory stock is a commercial-spec tube, so aftermarket stocks may require an adapter.
