The Global Ordnance Monolith 5.56 NATO rifle in its CA-compliant configuration is a bufferless AR-platform rifle built around a one-piece Mono Barrel. Global Ordnance produces the Monolith in collaboration with FM Products, and the barrel integrates the bore, barrel extension, gas block and a Dead Air KeyMo muzzle brake into one component. This version holds 10 rounds, with a 16-inch barrel and a 1:7 twist. It runs ambidextrous controls and a black finish, so it works for range use, training and general-purpose carbine work.
