The Great Lakes AR-15 redefines what a budget-friendly MSR can be, boasting precision-machined components made right here in the USA for a price that puts the competition to shame. Starting with forged aluminum receivers, the flat-top upper is matched perfectly to the free-float M-LOK handguard for a seamless picatinny top rail that runs the full length of the rifle. It has a shot-peened 16" 4150 steel barrel that's threaded 1/2x28, and comes with a GLFA muzzle brake to keep you on-target. The .223 Wylde chamber can handle both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington with no compromises in performance. State-of-the-art CNC machining and cutting-edge production processes with superior Great Lakes standards ensure that you get one of the best rifles on the market for your hard earned dollar. Perfect for competition, hunting or home defense, this is the ideal all-around all-purpose MSR.
