The Bushmaster Patrolman is engineered for consistent performance and immediate operational readiness. This 5.56 NATO AR-15 rifle integrates essential features for defense, training, and competitive applications where reliable function and rapid engagement are critical.
Key Features
Performance-Optimized Barrel
The 16-inch 4150 Chrome-Moly Vanadium steel barrel, chambered in 5.56 NATO, features an M4 profile and a 1:8 right-hand twist rate. This configuration stabilizes a wide range of projectile weights, optimizing accuracy and terminal performance across various ammunition types. A standard A2 flash hider is factory installed to mitigate muzzle flash signature.
BFSIII Binary Trigger System
Equipped with the Franklin Armory BFSIII Binary Trigger, this Patrolman model provides enhanced firing rate control. The BFSIII allows for a round to be fired upon trigger pull and a second round upon trigger release, facilitating rapid follow-up shots while maintaining a controlled firing cadence. This system is designed for reliability and seamless integration into the rifle’s lower receiver group.
Robust Construction
Both the upper and lower receivers are forged from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, ensuring structural integrity under rigorous use. A Type III hard coat anodized finish provides superior resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and environmental stressors, contributing to the rifle’s extended service life. The carbine-length gas system and F-marked front sight base are standard, engineered for consistent cycling and gas regulation.
Ergonomic and Functional Furniture
The rifle incorporates a standard M4 carbine handguard for reliable heat dissipation and secure grip. A 6-position collapsible M4 stock allows for rapid length-of-pull adjustment to accommodate various shooter body types and gear configurations. The A2 pistol grip provides a classic, secure hold, enhancing user interface and control.
