"Built to perform in various conditions, the Smith & Wesson Performance Center M&P15 Axe Semi-Auto Rifle is among the most full-featured factory AR-15s we've ever offered, with upgraded components front to back to outperform mil-spec rifles significantly. To start, it features the Gemtech GVAC system upper receiver, which utilizes a ""bore evacuator"" near the gas block to redirect excess gas out of the muzzle rather than back into your face reducing gas blowback when shooting suppressed. The upper is paired with the Axe ""Ambi X Enhancement"" forged lower receiver, which features an ambidextrous bolt catch, mag catch, and safety selector for simplified control from either the strong side or support side. Inside, the HIPERFIRE EDT flat trigger provides optimal control and accuracy by virtually eliminating left and right play. Additionally, the bolt carrier group features unique geometry for enhanced reliability in dusty or sandy environments. The M&P15 Axe comes outfitted with a 5R-rifled barrel topped with a Gemtech ETM flash hider that readily accepts a suppressor. A free-floating, 7-sided M-LOK handguard provides plenty of space for modern accessories. Finishing touches include a Radian Raptor charging handle, flip-up sights, and M&P grip with 4 interchangeable backstraps. Nothing about the M&P15 Axe Rifle is ""standard issue,"" so if you want an ambidextrous, fully equipped AR-15 right from the factory, look no further. Includes one 30-round magazine.
