The Vktr Industries VK-1PW delivers precision-focused features for competitive shooters and tactical professionals demanding consistent accuracy from their AR-15 platform. This 13.7-inch configuration optimizes barrel length while maintaining full-length sight radius capabilities. The integrated Magpul components provide proven ergonomics and reliability under demanding conditions.
What Makes This Different
The VK-1PW combines a low-profile M-LOK handguard with Sniper Gray Cerakote finish that resists corrosion and wear better than standard anodized aluminum. The 13.7-inch barrel length provides velocity advantages over shorter configurations while remaining more maneuverable than full 16-inch setups. Factory integration with Magpul SL stock and K2 grip eliminates compatibility concerns and ensures consistent trigger reach.
Key Features
- 13.7-inch barrel optimized for 5.56/.223 ballistics with carbine-length gas system
- Low-profile M-LOK handguard with full-length top rail for optics mounting
- Sniper Gray Cerakote finish rated for 2,400+ hours salt spray resistance
- Magpul SL stock with friction lock mechanism and multiple length positions
- Magpul K2 grip with steeper angle reducing wrist strain during extended use
- Mil-spec trigger group compatibility with standard AR-15 components
- Standard carbine buffer system with commercial or mil-spec tube compatibility
Range testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA potential with quality ammunition, while the balanced weight distribution reduces muzzle rise during rapid fire sequences. The M-LOK attachment system accommodates lights, lasers, and bipods without adding unnecessary bulk. Weather sealing at critical junctions maintains reliability in adverse conditions from competitive matches to duty applications.
