This component represents the foundation of a specific short-barreled AR-15 style rifle, manufactured by Daniel Defense. It is the serialized portion, legally considered the firearm, and serves as the platform upon which all other parts are assembled. Its stripped designation signifies the absence of fire control components like the trigger, hammer, and safety selector. This allows for customization and selection of aftermarket parts to suit individual preferences and needs.
The platform’s compact size and robust construction make it popular among military and law enforcement users, particularly in close-quarters combat scenarios. Daniel Defenses reputation for high-quality manufacturing and adherence to military specifications contributes to its appeal. Selecting this specific component provides a solid base for building a reliable and durable firearm. The ability to customize the fire control group adds further value, enabling users to fine-tune the trigger pull and other characteristics to optimize performance.
