The Diamondback DB1915K061 DB15 delivers reliable performance in a compact AR-15 pistol platform chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO. This configuration combines a 10-inch barrel with M-LOK compatibility for versatile accessory mounting. The flat dark earth receiver finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a professional appearance.
What Makes This Different
The DB15 features a black nitride-treated barrel that extends service life beyond standard phosphate coatings. The threaded muzzle accepts standard 1/2x28 muzzle devices, while the M-LOK handguard eliminates the weight penalty of traditional quad rails. Diamondback's manufacturing process ensures consistent headspace and chamber dimensions for reliable feeding and extraction.
Key Features
- 10-inch black nitride barrel with 1/2x28 threading for muzzle device compatibility
- M-LOK handguard system reduces weight while providing modular accessory mounting
- Flat dark earth anodized aluminum receiver with integrated Picatinny rail
- 30-round capacity accepts standard STANAG magazines
- Magpul MOE grip provides ergonomic control surface
- Standard carbine buffer tube accommodates aftermarket stocks and braces
- Right-hand ejection pattern with standard AR-15 controls
The 10-inch barrel length balances velocity retention with maneuverability in confined spaces. The nitride treatment penetrates the steel surface, creating a harder finish than traditional coatings. This platform performs effectively for competition shooting, training applications, and situations requiring compact dimensions. The M-LOK slots accept accessories without additional rail sections, maintaining the firearm's weight distribution.
