The Great Lakes Firearms GL10308SSBLK AR-10 delivers precision shooting capabilities in the popular .308 Winchester caliber with an 18-inch stainless steel barrel configuration. This semi-automatic rifle combines proven AR-platform reliability with enhanced accuracy potential for hunting, competition, and tactical applications. The stainless steel barrel construction provides superior corrosion resistance and consistent performance across temperature variations.
What Makes This Different
The GL10308SSBLK features a precision-machined stainless steel barrel that maintains accuracy longer than standard chrome-moly barrels while resisting environmental corrosion. The 18-inch barrel length optimizes .308 Winchester ballistics for medium to long-range shooting without the bulk of longer configurations. M-LOK handguard compatibility allows direct accessory mounting without additional rail sections, reducing weight and improving ergonomics compared to traditional quad-rail systems.
