Wilson Combat Protector AR Pistol 5.56mm NATO – 11.5" Match Barrel, Armor-Tuff Finish
Wilson Combat’s Protector AR Pistol distills the company’s duty-grade approach into a compact 11.5-inch package. Built on forged 7075-T6 receivers and protected by Wilson’s proprietary Armor-Tuff coating, this pistol delivers match-grade accuracy, a crisp two-stage trigger, and the proven reliability that led the Arkansas State Police to adopt the Protector platform in 2020.

The heart of this pistol is an 11.5-inch match-grade stainless steel barrel treated with Melonite for long-term corrosion resistance. It is threaded 1/2-28 and fitted at the factory with the Wilson Combat Q-Comp, a hybrid muzzle device that reduces felt recoil while minimizing flash.
Wilson’s slim free-float M-LOK handguard keeps weight forward low and provides a full-length Picatinny top rail for mounting sights or accessories. The direct-impingement operating system remains light and responsive, and the 7075-T6 forged receivers ensure robust strength without unnecessary bulk.
A factory-installed Wilson Combat two-stage Tactical Trigger breaks cleanly at approximately 4 pounds, supporting the platform’s sub-MOA potential. Control surfaces include the Wilson Combat/BCM Starburst polymer grip, offering improved traction in all weather conditions.
Finished in Armor-Tuff black over hard-coat anodizing, every external metal surface is shielded against wear, abrasion, and the elements. The result is a compact AR pistol engineered for hard service and precise shooting alike.
