Description
Product Overview
The Faxon Ion Ultralight is a factory-upgraded AR-15 rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO. Its direct-impingement operating system pairs a 16-inch black nitride barrel with an integral muzzle brake for controlled handling and reduced muzzle movement. A 15-inch M-LOK handguard provides flexible space for accessories, while the Gunner lightweight bolt carrier group and tuned gas system support the rifle’s lightweight, soft-shooting setup. The rifle also includes an Hiperfire EDTDM trigger, ambidextrous charging handle, Radian Talon ambidextrous safety selector, Magpul grip, and six-position Mission First Tactical Minimalist stock. The receiver and stock use the supplied Blue/Black finish specification. It is optic ready and supplied without a pre-installed optic.

When doing research...
When doing research for purchasing an AR-15 the Faxon Ion Ultralight was at the top of my list. Bud's Gun Shop not only has an exceptional variety of weapons, ammo and accessories they also had my firearm of choice at the lowest price. Bud's kept me up to date via email regarding my purchase and were very quick with shipping to a licensed firearms dealer in my State. The entire experience and the quantity of the Faxon exceeded my expectations. I truly can say look to Bud's for all your firearm related needs. I don't think you will be disappointed.
