The BCM RECCE-14 KMR-A delivers precision and reliability in a compact 14.5-inch configuration optimized for close to mid-range engagements. This rifle combines Bravo Company Manufacturing's proven upper receiver group with their acclaimed KMR-Alpha free-float handguard system. The chrome-lined barrel and Mod 1 compensator provide consistent accuracy while managing recoil effectively.
What Makes This Different
The KMR-Alpha (KeyMod Mounting Rail) handguard sets this rifle apart from standard carbines with its lightweight aluminum construction and full-length top rail. Unlike traditional quad-rail systems that add unnecessary weight, the KMR-A maintains structural rigidity at just 8.8 ounces for the 13-inch version. The 14.5-inch barrel length with permanently attached Mod 1 compensator meets the 16-inch minimum requirement while maximizing maneuverability in confined spaces.
Key Features
- 14.5-inch chrome-lined steel barrel with 1:7 twist rate for stabilizing heavier projectiles
- BCM Mod 1 compensator permanently attached, reducing muzzle rise and felt recoil
- KMR-Alpha 13-inch free-float handguard with KeyMod attachment points
- 7075-T6 aluminum upper and lower receivers with Type III hard anodizing

Field performance centers on the rifle's balanced weight distribution and 14.5-inch barrel's ballistic efficiency. The chrome lining extends barrel life significantly over standard steel, particularly important for high-volume shooting. Law enforcement and military users appreciate the ambidextrous controls and the rifle's ability to maintain accuracy standards while remaining compact enough for vehicle deployment.
