This is a brand new Primary Weapon Systems AR-15 semi-automatic rifle with a
high performance .223 Wylde chamber. .223 Wylde is a proprietary rifle
cartridge chamber with the same external dimensions and lead angle as found in
the the military 5.56×45mm NATO cartridge and the 0.2240 inch freebore diameter
as found in the civilian SAAMI .223 Remington cartridge. The .223 Wylde hybrid
chamber was designed to exploit the accuracy advantages of the .223 Remington
chambering without pressure problems or compromising the functional reliability
of semi automatic weapons like the AR-15 family when using 5.56×45mm NATO
military ammunition.
The shortest of the non-NFA models with a removable muzzle device, the PWS
MK116 Rifle is a crowd favorite. The MK116 is designed for a multitude of uses
and retains lethal capability out to 500 meters with varying types of
ammunition and boasts a PWS FSC556 muzzle device. The 16" barrel features a
versatile 1:8" twist rate, offering stabilization of the widest ranges of
bullet weights available.
Understanding the importance of an ultra-reliable package that is light as
possible, mil-spec forgings are used for the upper and lower receiver.
Additional features include the BCM GUNFIGHTER charging handle, the PWS
enhanced buffer tube and an ALG Defense QMS trigger. The rifle is rounded out
with industry leading features such as Magpul MOE grip, MOE stock, and MBUS
sights.
The MK116 utilizes a proven mid length Gas Piston operation system. The
operating system, designed after the venerable AK-47, features a long stroke
fixed operating rod design with an adjustable gas block and free-floated
barrel. The handguard features the VLTOR KeyMod System which comes standard
with two 2 sections of 1913 rail as well as a continuous 1913 top rail. We also
have additional modular Picatinny rail segments available for sale.
This rifle ships in a padded hard case.
