.223 Wylde AR 15 Rifle Kit (16″ Parkerized Barrel & 15″ M-Lok Handguard, Side-Charged) – (1:8 Twist)

Please Note: Given the current demand for this product and supply shortages, your order may ship with a black hammer and trigger or a stainless steel hammer and trigger.

So charging handles are weird, huh? You have that awkward handle on top that you pull rearward. Sure you have the required  strength, but it's kind of a pain in the ass, right? Can you charge your workhorse while leaving your main hand on the pistol grip, or do you have to alter your grip completely? What if there was a peg or handle sticking out the side of your AR that you could just grab, yank it back, and go to work? Read on.

This .223 Wylde-chambered AR build features an already pre-built side-charging upper assembly complete with a barrel made of 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel and a 15-inch free floating M-Lok handguard. Buy and finish an 80% lower with a jig, and then finish assembling the rest. Then all you gotta do is add either the backup sights or optic of your choice, and get some mags and ammo. Show your AR who's boss.

What’s Included

This kit is not a firearm. It includes an assembled upper receiver, bolt carrier group, lower parts kit, and buffer assembly with buttstock. It does not include the component to make a firearm: A stripped lower receiver. Pair this rifle kit with an AR-15 80% lower receiver and AR-15 jig to fabricate a receiver, sold separately.

No FFL or serialization is required to fabricate a receiver under federal law. However, state laws vary. Some states require serialization or have banned 80% lowers and gun-making kits. We encourage each and every builder to perform their own research about the state and federal laws that apply to them.
