The Diamondback DB1984K001 Obsidian AR pistol provides a compact, potent 5.56 NATO platform designed for close-quarters applications and operational versatility. Engineered with robust materials and precise manufacturing processes, this system integrates critical components to deliver consistent performance in demanding environments.
Key Features
Receiver and Construction
Precision machined 7075-T6 aluminum receivers form the robust foundation of the DB1984K001 Obsidian, ensuring structural integrity and consistent component fit. The 11-inch M-LOK free-float handguard offers an extensive, modular mounting surface for lights, lasers, and other mission-critical accessories, while maintaining a slim profile conducive to effective weapon manipulation.
Barrel and Ballistics
The 11.50-inch barrel features a durable Black Nitride finish. This treatment enhances corrosion resistance and surface hardness, contributing to extended barrel life and consistent bore dimensions. This barrel length is optimized to balance ballistic performance in 5.56 NATO with the compact form factor inherent to an AR pistol, facilitating effective engagement at relevant operational distances.
Ergonomics and Modularity
An SBA5 pistol brace is integrated, offering enhanced stability and control for the AR pistol platform, which is critical for precise shot placement. The Magpul MOE K2 grip is selected to improve weapon manipulation through its more vertical grip angle, facilitating a natural wrist position for improved control, particularly within compact configurations.
Performance and Reliability
The DB1984K001 Obsidian utilizes a direct impingement gas system, a proven mechanism for the AR platform, ensuring reliable cycling across a broad spectrum of 5.56 NATO ammunition. The robust construction, combined with carefully selected components, contributes to sustained operational readiness and repeatable performance under diverse conditions.
