Patriot Ordnance Factory Minuteman DI 5.56 NATO 16" CA Compliant

The Patriot Ordnance Factory Minuteman DI delivers reliable direct impingement operation in a California-compliant configuration. This 5.56 NATO rifle combines POF's manufacturing precision with features that meet strict state regulations while maintaining tactical functionality.

What Makes This Different

The Minuteman DI features POF's heat-treated 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel barrel with a 1:7 twist rate for optimal bullet stabilization. The 14-inch M-LOK rail system provides extensive mounting options while keeping overall weight manageable at approximately 6.8 pounds. California compliance is achieved through a fixed stock and compliant grip configuration, eliminating the need for additional modifications.
