The Rock River Arms LAR-15 A2 Mid 5.56 NATO 16" semi-automatic rifle delivers proven reliability and modularity for tactical operators, law enforcement, and civilian shooters who demand AR-platform performance. Chambered in 5.56 NATO (.223 Remington), this mid-length gas system carbine balances cycling reliability, reduced recoil impulse, and component longevity—critical factors in both patrol duty and extended range sessions.
Core specifications include a 16-inch barrel optimized for the mid-length gas system, paired with an A2 upper receiver and A2 front sight post for zero repeatability. The 2-stage trigger provides predictable break and controllable reset. A 6-position collapsible stock enables rapid adjustment for body armor, gear, and shooting position. The rifle ships with one 30-round magazine and anodized black finish for corrosion resistance. This configuration meets the performance envelope expected in standard-issue and civilian tactical rifles.
Rock River Arms positions the LAR-15 platform for shooters requiring carbine-length ergonomics without over-gassing common in shorter barrels. The 16-inch barrel length complies with federal and most state rifle regulations, while the mid-length system reduces wear on bolt carrier components compared to carbine-length designs. This rifle suits home defense, range training, patrol readiness, and modular platform expansion through AR-standard parts compatibility.
The A2 configuration represents the foundational AR-15 ergonomic and sighting standard. Buyers comfortable with iron sights and forward-mounted controls will find this setup immediately familiar. For those planning optics integration, the flat-top upper design common to modern AR carbines is not present in the A2; shooters intending to use optical sights should verify mounting compatibility or consider rail-equipped alternatives.
Rock River Arms manufactures in the United States and holds a reputation for attention to detail in component fit and finish. The LAR-15 A2 Mid carbine serves operators, law enforcement trainers, and civilian buyers entering the AR platform or maintaining traditional sighting systems.
