The Rock River Arms R3 Competition (Rock River Arms part no. AR1700V1) is a .223 Wylde AR-15 built for precision shooters who want a fluted stainless barrel and a genuine two-stage trigger. Rock River Arms runs an 18-inch fluted stainless barrel through a mid-length gas system, and tops it with a tuned and ported muzzle brake to tame recoil for faster follow-up shots. An RRA chrome bolt carrier group, a Hogue grip, and a six-position CAR stock round out the ergonomics, while an RRA winter trigger guard keeps the rifle usable with gloves. It ships with one 30-round magazine and an RRA hard case, ready for competition or serious range work.
