The ArmaLite AR10TAC16 delivers precision firepower in a compact tactical platform designed for versatility across multiple shooting disciplines. This .308 Winchester rifle combines ArmaLite's proven engineering with premium components for reliable performance in demanding conditions.
What Makes This Different
Built on ArmaLite's time-tested AR-10 platform, this tactical variant features a 16-inch barrel that balances maneuverability with ballistic performance. The Magpul STR collapsible stock provides six positions of adjustment while maintaining a solid cheek weld. Unlike basic AR-10 configurations, this model comes equipped with Magpul MBUS flip-up sights and an integrated flash suppressor for immediate deployment.
Key Features
- 16-inch chrome-lined barrel with 1:10 twist rate optimized for .308 Winchester
- Magpul STR collapsible stock with rubber buttpad and storage compartments
- Magpul MBUS front and rear flip-up backup iron sights
- A2-style flash suppressor reduces muzzle flash and blast signature

The rifle's gas-operated system cycles reliably with both commercial and military ammunition loads. The 16-inch barrel length provides excellent velocity retention while remaining compact enough for vehicle transport and close-quarters maneuvering. Weather-resistant finishes protect against corrosion in adverse conditions, making this platform suitable for tactical operations, competitive shooting, and hunting applications.
