The Great Lakes Firearms GL-15 .350 Legend AR-15 Rifle is a purpose-built straight-walled modern sporting rifle designed for hunters and shooters who need reliable, compact performance in states with straight-wall cartridge restrictions. Chambered in .350 Legend, this semi-automatic AR delivers hard-hitting energy for deer and hogs while keeping recoil manageable for newer shooters. Built with a 7075 aluminum upper and an M-LOK compatible handguard, the GL-15 ships with a 5-round detachable magazine and a muzzle brake. The bi-tone finish pairs a black synthetic adjustable stock with a contrasting upper receiver for a sharp, functional look.

Key Features
- Straight-Walled .350 Legend Chambering — Why it matters: This cartridge lets you hunt in states like Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and Iowa where straight-walled ammunition is required for deer season, giving you a legal, ethical option without giving up semi-auto capability.
- 7075 Aluminum Upper Receiver — Why it matters: 7075 is the same high-strength alloy used in MIL-SPEC AR-15s, so you get a lightweight but durable platform that holds zero and handles repeated use at the range or in the field.
- M-LOK Compatible Handguard — Why it matters: You can mount lights, bipods, or foregrips directly onto the handguard without extra adapters, keeping your setup clean and customizable for different hunting or shooting scenarios.
- Muzzle Brake Included — Why it matters: The .350 Legend can produce noticeable muzzle rise, but the included brake redirects gas to keep the barrel flat, helping you stay on target for quick follow-up shots—especially important for new shooters or youth hunters.
- Adjustable Black Synthetic Stock — Why it matters: A six-position stock lets you adjust length of pull for smaller or larger shooters, making this rifle a great choice for families who want one gun that fits everyone comfortably.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for hunters in straight-walled cartridge states who want a modern, semi-auto platform instead of a traditional lever-action or bolt gun. It also works well for families introducing new shooters to centerfire rifles because the .350 Legend has about 30% less recoil than a .308 Winchester. Youth shooters and women will appreciate the adjustable stock and manageable blast from the muzzle brake.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Straight-walled legal for deer in multiple states, low recoil, semi-auto action, M-LOK handguard for accessories, adjustable stock fits various shooters.
- Cons: The 5-round magazine capacity is limiting for target practice or varmint hunting compared to standard AR-15 30-round mags. You can buy higher-capacity .350 Legend mags separately, but it’s an added cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Great Lakes GL-15 .350 Legend legal for deer hunting in Ohio?
Yes. The .350 Legend is a straight-walled cartridge, and Ohio allows straight-walled ammunition for deer hunting during the gun season. The GL-15 comes with a 5-round magazine to comply with capacity limits in many states. Always check your local regulations before hunting.
Can I use standard AR-15 magazines with this rifle?
No. The .350 Legend uses a different magazine geometry than 5.56 NATO. The GL-15 ships with a 5-round .350 Legend-specific magazine. You can buy 10-round or larger .350 Legend magazines from brands like CMMG or Duramag, but standard AR mags will not work.
How does the .350 Legend compare to the .450 Bushmaster for recoil?
The .350 Legend produces roughly 12 ft-lbs of recoil energy, while the .450 Bushmaster generates about 20 ft-lbs. That makes the .350 Legend much more comfortable for new shooters and youth hunters. The GL-15’s muzzle brake further reduces felt recoil by about 30%.
What kind of accuracy can I expect from the GL-15?
Per manufacturer specs, the GL-15 is a hunting-grade rifle, not a precision bench gun. Most shooters report 1.5 to 2.5 MOA groups with factory .350 Legend ammunition at 100 yards. That’s plenty accurate for ethical deer shots out to 200 yards.
Can I mount a scope on this rifle?
Yes. The upper receiver is flat-top with a Picatinny rail, so you can mount any standard scope rings or a one-piece mount. A low-power variable optic (1-6x or 2-7x) is a popular choice for .350 Legend hunting rifles.
