For sale is a fine example of American gun craftsmanship – the Franklin Armory AR-15 DI Pistol. This semi-auto rifle, chambered in .223 Remington, exhibits the perfect blend of form and function. A well-maintained piece, it shows only minor signs of prior use, characterized by scuffs and scratches on the upper and lower receiver, as well as some wear on the castle nut and picatinny rail. However, the bore condition remains excellent, featuring a clean, mirror finish with no signs of wear, and sharp lands and grooves on the rifling.
This firearm is an ideal choice for both range day shooting and home defense, thanks to its impressive 40+1 capacity and the inclusion of a binary trigger – a unique feature that allows the shooter to fire a round both on the pull and release of the trigger. Its free-floating handguard with a top picatinny rail and M-LOK attachment points offer ample room for additional accessories. The black polymer stock and A2 pistol grip ensure a comfortable and steady hold, while the 16" barrel, complete with a threaded muzzle brake/flash hider, guarantees excellent performance.
