The Battle Arms Development Workhorse-LT in .223 Remington/5.56 NATO (MPN WORKHORSE-LT) pairs a 16-inch .223 Wylde barrel with a compact 7-inch M-LOK handguard, giving shooters a lightweight, close-quarters-capable AR-15. Battle Arms Development cuts a 1:8-inch rate of twist so the barrel cycles both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO, fits an A2 mil-spec grip, and runs a safety selector switch. The rifle feeds from a detachable 30-round magazine. Among modern sporting rifles in the AR rifles category, the Workhorse-LT favors shooters who want a compact-handguard build for close-quarters maneuverability.
