Shark Coast Tactical Geodesic 5.56 NATO 10.5" 30rd Pistol

The Geodesic wears a hand applied Cerakote pattern over a straightforward 5.56 NATO AR pistol. Shark Coast Tactical assembles it on aluminum upper and lower receivers with a 10.5" nitride barrel, an M-LOK handguard and an SB Tactical SBA3 brace, then finishes the exterior in a custom scheme that no two guns share exactly.

Ten and a half inches of barrel is the sweet spot for a 5.56 pistol. It is short enough to maneuver indoors and long enough that the round still does its work inside a hundred yards. The muzzle comes threaded so a suppressor, brake or flash hider goes on directly. The receiver top is a full Picatinny rail, so mounting an optic takes nothing more than a base and a torque wrench, and the M-LOK slots along the handguard handle lights, sling mounts and hand stops. A polymer grip and a 30rd magazine complete the build. Because it is an AR-15 underneath, every part that wears out is a commodity: springs, extractors, gas rings and triggers all come off the shelf. The only piece of this pistol that is not replaceable is the paint, which is why people buy it in the first place.
