M4 Profile Barrel
The 16 inch barrel features 4150 CrMoV steel construction with phosphate finish. The M4 profile provides appropriate rigidity while balancing weight. Phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance and durability. The 1:7 twist rate stabilizes a wide range of projectile weights from 55 to 77 grains effectively. Carbine length gas system provides reliable cycling across varied ammunition types.
Recoil Technologies Premium Bolt Carrier Group
The Recoil Technologies Premium bolt carrier group features 8620 alloy steel construction with nitride finish. This material provides enhanced wear resistance and corrosion protection in a high pressure platform. The nitride treatment penetrates the steel surface rather than coating it, maintaining dimensional tolerances while adding durability. Recoil Technologies Premium BCG provides reliable performance.
Freefloat Keymod Handguard System
The freefloat Keymod handguard provides modular mounting surfaces through keyhole shaped slots. 6061 T6 aluminum construction keeps weight manageable while providing structural rigidity. The freefloat design eliminates contact with the barrel for improved accuracy potential. Keymod slots allow modular accessory attachment while maintaining a slim profile.
Carbine Gas System
The carbine length gas system on a 16 inch barrel provides reliable cycling with standard 5.56 NATO ammunition. Carbine length gas systems deliver consistent function across varied ammunition types and environmental conditions. The 0.75 diameter gas block provides proper gas port alignment.
Complete Upper Configuration
This complete upper includes the upper assembly with barrel and handguard, Recoil Technologies Premium bolt carrier group, and charging handle. The upper receiver is constructed from 7075 T6 aluminum with anodized finish for corrosion resistance and durability. Compatible with standard AR-15 lower receivers.
