Shark Coast Tactical P-51 Mustang 5.56 NATO 16" 30rd Rifle

Shark Coast Tactical built the P-51 Mustang AR as a tribute to the most famous American fighter of World War II. The upper and lower receivers are deep engraved with fighter plane style artwork and finished in a distressed blue, and the handguard carries a matching deep blue Cerakote. It reads like nose art on a rifle, and the Cerakote holds up to handling and cleaning.

The working parts are a familiar AR-15 setup chambered in 5.56 NATO. A 16" threaded barrel accepts the muzzle device of your choice, the rifle feeds from standard 30 round magazines, and the lever safety and right hand controls follow the usual AR-15 pattern, so there is nothing new to learn. The aluminum receivers keep weight near 6.6 lbs. Aviation fans and collectors get a conversation piece, and shooters get a carbine that runs like any other quality AR at the range or at home.
