Key Features
- .223 Wylde Chamber – Why it matters: You get the accuracy of a .223 Remington barrel with the ability to safely shoot 5.56 NATO ammunition, giving you versatility at the range or in the field.
- 16-Inch Barrel with Muzzle Brake – Why it matters: The 1:8 twist rate stabilizes a wide range of bullet weights, and the muzzle brake reduces recoil for faster follow-up shots, especially important when hunting deer or varmints.
- 15-Inch M-Lok Handguard – Why it matters: This free-float design improves accuracy by removing barrel pressure, and the M-Lok slots let you mount lights, grips, or bipods without adding bulk.
- Deer Camp Camo Finish – Why it matters: The Cerakote pattern blends into wooded or brushy environments, and the durable coating resists scratches and corrosion, keeping your rifle looking good season after season.
- 30+1 Capacity Magazine – Why it matters: You get a standard 30-round magazine with a +1 extension, giving you extra firepower for range sessions or hunting situations where reloading is less convenient.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the traditional shooter who values accuracy, reliability, and a rifle that looks as good as it shoots. It’s ideal for deer hunters, varmint hunters, and target shooters who want a lightweight, camo-finished AR without paying a premium for a custom build. If you appreciate a rifle made in Michigan with American pride, this one’s for you.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Tack-driving accuracy (confirmed by customers), versatile .223 Wylde chamber, durable camo finish, affordable price point, made in Michigan.
- Cons: The A2 grip is a bit slim for shooters with larger hands; many prefer a more ergonomic aftermarket grip, which is easy to swap.

Is this rifle legal to hunt deer with in my state?
It depends on your state’s hunting regulations. Many states allow .223/5.56 for deer hunting, but some have minimum caliber or energy requirements. Check your local laws before heading out. The camo finish is ideal for woodland hunts.
