The SOCOM 16’s 16.25 inch barrel is paired with a specialized muzzle brake that tames recoil and muzzle rise, making rapid follow-up shots easier with full-power .308 ammunition.
An Archangel CQB polymer fore-end integrates a forward seven-slot scout Picatinny rail and removable rail sections at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, allowing quick attachment of optics, lights, or other accessories.
The collapsible six-position stock with raised cheekpiece and AK-pattern pistol grip offers a customizable length of pull down to 11.25 inches, giving shooters a compact profile for confined spaces while maintaining solid cheek weld for sight alignment.
Low-light capability comes from the XS tritium front sight teamed with a ghost-ring aperture rear sight, delivering fast target acquisition around the clock without batteries.
Built on a parkerized steel receiver and powered by Springfield’s short-stroke gas piston system, this American-made rifle accepts standard M14 magazines and retains the rugged reliability that defines the M1A line.
