Product Overview
The Diamondback DB15 5.56 NATO rifle provides a capable and adaptable AR platform engineered for diverse operational requirements, encompassing recreational shooting, competitive applications, and personal defense. This variant features a 16-inch barrel with a black nitride finish, which mitigates corrosion and enhances wear resistance across varied environmental conditions.
Receiver sets, comprising both upper and lower units, are precision-machined from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum. These components are subsequently finished with a Flat Dark Earth (FDE) Cerakote, which provides a durable, abrasion-resistant barrier and augments resistance to chemical and environmental degradation. The DB15 integrates a Flat Dark Earth Magpul MOE K2 grip, engineered to facilitate a secure and ergonomic interface, thereby optimizing weapon control and handling during rapid fire or sustained engagements. A standard 30-round capacity magazine is supplied, supporting extended training cycles or readiness postures.
Key Features
Caliber Versatility
The DB15 is chambered for 5.56 NATO, ensuring full compatibility with .223 Remington ammunition. This facilitates ammunition sourcing flexibility for training and operational deployment.
Robust Construction
The 16-inch barrel undergoes a black nitride treatment, a process known for increasing surface hardness and reducing friction, contributing to barrel longevity and consistent projectile velocity. The upper and lower receivers, fabricated from 7075-T6 aluminum, benefit from the FDE Cerakote application, providing superior surface protection against impact and environmental elements.
Optimized Ergonomics
Equipped with a Flat Dark Earth Magpul MOE K2 grip, the rifle provides an improved hand-to-receiver interface. Its steeper grip angle and optimized texture facilitate positive weapon manipulation and recoil mitigation, particularly in dynamic shooting scenarios.
Reliable Operational Cycle
This platform is designed for consistent gas system function and repeatable bolt carrier group cycling. The robust component integration ensures predictable operation and sustained performance under varying conditions, crucial for maintaining operational readiness.
