The Diamondback DB15 5.56 NATO rifle combines proven AR-15 platform reliability with integrated Viridian laser technology for enhanced target acquisition. This black and flat dark earth configuration delivers consistent performance across multiple shooting applications with its 16-inch barrel and M-LOK handguard system.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard AR-15 builds, this DB15 comes factory-equipped with a Viridian laser sight system, eliminating the need for separate optic purchases and zero procedures. The two-tone black receiver and FDE furniture combination provides both tactical aesthetics and practical camouflage benefits. Diamondback's manufacturing process ensures consistent chamber dimensions and proper headspacing for reliable cycling with various 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition types.
Key Features
- Integrated Viridian laser sight system for rapid target engagement
- 16-inch 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel barrel with carbine-length gas system
- M-LOK compatible aluminum handguard for accessory mounting flexibility
- Mil-spec trigger group with standard AR-15 fire control compatibility

Field performance centers around the carbine-length gas system's balanced cycling characteristics, providing reliable function with both military surplus and premium ammunition. The 16-inch barrel length delivers effective velocities for both precision shooting and close-quarters applications. Weather-resistant finishes protect critical components during extended outdoor use, while the M-LOK system accommodates lights, grips, and bipods without adding unnecessary weight.
