Shadow Systems U526 5.56 NATO 16" 10rd FDE CA Compliant Rifle

This is the California compliant version of the Shadow Systems U526 duty rifle, set up with a 10 round magazine. It is a semi auto chambered in 5.56 NATO with a 16 inch spiral hybrid profile barrel that is chrome lined and finished in black, and the intermediate gas system works with that barrel for a refined shooting impulse across a wide range of ammunition.

The receiver is Flat Dark Earth with a Picatinny rail, and the polymer stock and grip match it in FDE. The furniture, rail, trigger and controls are Shadow's own proprietary parts, so the rifle comes together as one complete system rather than a parts bin assembly, with a rigid handguard interface that stays steady under load. The handguard takes M-LOK accessories. A DLC coated bolt carrier group runs inside, and a Maelstrom flash hider sits on the muzzle. Shadow built the U526 for shooters who want smooth recoil, consistency and long term reliability.
