Maxim Defense MD15 Duty Precision 5.56 18-inch Rifle

The Maxim Defense MD15 Duty Precision is a 5.56 NATO rifle (Maxim Defense part no. MXM49281) built for shooters who want a precision-oriented AR without giving up duty-ready reliability. It’s fitted with an 18-inch black threaded barrel for extended reach and easy attachment of a suppressor or muzzle device, mounted in a black anodized aluminum receiver topped with a full-length Picatinny rail. The M-Rax/M-Slot handguard gives shooters a secure, accessory-ready grip, and the Magpul PRS Lite stock allows a precise, repeatable cheek weld for both bench and field shooting. Ambidextrous controls make the MD15 comfortable to run from either shoulder, and a black polymer grip rounds out a build designed for serious range work. It’s a strong option for shooters who want precision-rifle ergonomics in a semi-automatic AR platform.
