Craig –
This is the perfect rife for any beginning AR shooter or person that cannot hold much weight. The rifle comes equipped with as 6 position collapsible stock, a pretty good red dot scope, and the standard 30 round magazine. The Carbon 15 has a 16 inch, M4 style barrel with a low-profile gas block with no iron sights.
The Carbon 15 is very light in weight compared to your standard AR-15. The upper and lower receiver are made from carbon fiber. With the weight reduction, the recoil is very minimal, allowing you to shoot it for hours.
It is very easy to customize. The commercial-spec stock can be replaced as well with the trigger, safety selector and forearm. The delta ring on the Carbon 15 is very stiff and will need a special tool if you plan to change it.
Some things you will really enjoy is it will take .223 and the 5.56 NATO round. It is not picky like other guns on steel or brass casings. It has a forward assist but you will not need it because it hasn’t jammed in 1000 rounds.
For the price of $799.99 it is a very good deal. You will not be disappointed with your purchase. Be sure to pick some ear protection and happy shooting!
