The RADN R0262 MODEL 1 *CA* 223WYLD RFL 14.5 10R BLK is a hand-assembled, fully ambidextrous AR-15 built for shooters who value precision, reliability, and a perfect fit for both left- and right-handed family members. Each rifle is individually built by a trained gunsmith, then test-fired and cleaned before it ships, so your first trip to the range is about learning, not troubleshooting.

Key Features
- Fully Ambidextrous Controls – Why it matters: Left-handed shooters in your family can run the charging handle, bolt release, and magazine release without changing their grip, making range time safer and more natural for everyone.
- Hand-Assembled by a Trained Gunsmith – Why it matters: Every Model 1 is built one at a time by a single smith who inspects, test-fires, and cleans the rifle, so you get a firearm that’s ready to shoot right out of the box.
- Cerakoted Upper, Lower, and Hand Guard as a Set – Why it matters: The finish is applied together, so the color matches perfectly across all three parts — no mismatched shades that can happen with separate coatings.
- Radian Raptor-SD Suppressor-Optimized Charging Handle – Why it matters: The SD design reduces gas blowback to your face when shooting suppressed, keeping your eyes clear and your focus on the target.
- Extended Aluminum Hand Guard with Magpul M-LOK – Why it matters: The free-float rail gives you a stable platform for lights, grips, or bipods, and the integrated stainless steel anti-rotation pin keeps the hand guard locked tight to the upper.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for families who shoot together — parents teaching kids, partners learning side-by-side, or anyone who wants a premium AR that works for both left- and right-handed users. The 14.5-inch barrel (with a pinned and welded muzzle device to meet legal overall length) keeps it maneuverable for home defense or the range, while the 10-round magazine makes it California-compliant out of the box.
Pros and Cons
- Pro: Fully ambidextrous — no need to buy aftermarket parts for left-handed shooters.
- Pro: Hand-assembled and test-fired by a single gunsmith, ensuring consistent quality.
- Pro: Cerakote finish is applied to the upper, lower, and hand guard together for a seamless look.
- Con: The 14.5-inch barrel requires a pinned and welded muzzle device to meet 16-inch overall length, which means you cannot easily swap muzzle devices without a gunsmith.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the RADN Model 1 CA-compliant right out of the box?
Yes. This specific model (R0262) ships with a 10-round magazine and a pinned and welded muzzle device to meet California’s overall length and magazine capacity requirements. No additional modifications are needed for compliance.
Can a left-handed shooter use this rifle without swapping parts?
Absolutely. The Model 1 comes with a fully ambidextrous charging handle, bolt release, and magazine release. Left-handed shooters can operate every control without changing their grip or buying aftermarket parts.
Does the 14.5-inch barrel affect accuracy compared to a 16-inch barrel?
The 14.5-inch barrel is slightly shorter, which can reduce muzzle velocity by about 50–100 fps compared to a 16-inch barrel, but for most shooters at typical ranges (0–300 yards), the difference in accuracy is negligible. The reduced length makes the rifle easier to maneuver indoors or in tight spaces.
What kind of warranty does the RADN Model 1 have?
Radian Weapons offers a limited lifetime warranty on the Model 1 against defects in materials and workmanship. If you have a problem, contact their customer service for repair or replacement.
Can I use a suppressor with the Raptor-SD charging handle?
Yes. The Raptor-SD is specifically designed to reduce gas blowback when shooting suppressed. It works with most 5.56 suppressors and helps keep gas away from your face.
