The JAKL’s long-stroke gas piston and adjustable gas block deliver a durable operating system with tunability. The bufferless, captured recoil assembly enables the compact 1913 rear interface and side-folding stock without an external receiver extension.
The monolithic aluminum upper integrates a continuous 1913 Picatinny top rail and M-LOK slots, providing a rigid foundation for mounting. The reversible side-charging handle offers flexible setup, with controls that include a standard magazine release and a manual safety selector.
Its 16.5 inch 4150 CMV barrel is nitride treated and threaded 1/2x28, capped with a two-prong flash hider. A 1:7 twist supports common 5.56×45 NATO loads, and the configuration is specified at 30+1 capacity.
Ergonomics and finish details include a Flat Dark Earth receiver and stock, a polymer side-folding stock on the 1913 interface, and a Magpul pistol grip. Markings include “JAKL 5.56 NATO” and “Palmetto State Armory West Columbia, S.C.”
