The GLFA AR-15 .223 Wylde Serpent Bronze Camo rifle pairs a .223 Wylde chamber with a 16-inch heavy barrel and a six-degree-forward muzzle brake (brand part no. GL15223S-BRZ). Great Lakes Firearms and Ammunition builds it in Michigan with a 7075 aluminum upper and lower and a 15.25-inch full-Picatinny aluminum handguard. The Serpent Bronze Camo color distinguishes it from the many other GLFA AR-15 builds, and the maker finishes its rifles in Cerakote. With a 30-round magazine included and no iron sights fitted, it is ready for a red dot or optic of your choice for range days, training and general-purpose use from Great Lakes.
