The BCM RECCE-16 KMR-A delivers precision and reliability in a lightweight platform built for versatility across multiple shooting disciplines. This 5.56 NATO rifle combines Bravo Company Manufacturing's proven upper receiver technology with a free-floating KeyMod rail system for enhanced accuracy and modularity.
What Makes This Different
The KMR-A (KeyMod Rail - Alpha) handguard eliminates the weight and bulk of traditional quad rails while maintaining structural integrity under hard use. The 13-inch free-floating design allows the barrel to flex naturally without interference, typically improving accuracy by 0.5-1 MOA compared to standard carbine-length handguards. BCM's cold hammer forged barrel features a 1:7 twist rate optimized for heavier projectiles from 62-77 grains.
Key Features
- 16-inch cold hammer forged barrel with 1:7 twist rate for superior accuracy
- 13-inch KMR-A KeyMod handguard with M-LOK compatibility slots
- BCM upper receiver with T-marked flat-top rail for optics mounting
- 6-position collapsible stock with commercial-spec buffer tube
- Hard coat anodized finish with manganese phosphate barrel coating
- Standard AR-15 magazine compatibility (30-round capacity)
- Mid-length gas system reduces felt recoil and improves reliability
Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA performance with quality ammunition, while the mid-length gas system cycles reliably with both 55-grain M193 and 77-grain OTM loads. The rifle maintains zero through temperature extremes and handles rapid-fire strings without accuracy degradation. Law enforcement and competitive shooters favor this configuration for its balance of portability and precision at distances from 25 to 600 yards.
