Radian Weapons Model 1 223 Wylde 16" AR-15 Rifle Gray Cerakote

The Radian Weapons Model 1 delivers precision engineering in a complete AR-15 platform chambered in versatile 223 Wylde. This rifle combines Radian's signature ambidextrous controls with premium components for shooters demanding reliability and accuracy across multiple ammunition types.

What Makes This Different

Radian's proprietary ambidextrous lower receiver features the integrated A-DAC (Ambidextrous Dual Area Control) system, providing seamless operation for both left and right-handed shooters. The 223 Wylde chamber specification accepts both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition while maintaining tighter tolerances than standard 5.56 chambers. This configuration delivers improved accuracy with .223 match ammunition while retaining full compatibility with military surplus rounds.

Key Features

• 223 Wylde chamber for enhanced accuracy with .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO compatibility
• Radian A-DAC ambidextrous lower receiver with integrated controls
• 16-inch barrel with carbine-length gas system for reliable cycling

• Magpul MOE collapsible stock with multiple length-of-pull positions
• 30-round Magpul PMAG included for immediate deployment

Field performance centers on the rifle's ability to maintain sub-MOA accuracy potential with quality ammunition while functioning reliably in adverse conditions. The carbine-length gas system provides consistent cycling with both lightweight and heavy bullet weights. Competition shooters benefit from the crisp trigger break and ambidextrous controls, while the durable Cerakote finish withstands extended range sessions and environmental exposure.
