Description
The ARC sets a new benchmark for duty grade rifles.
Each ARC is thoroughly gauged & individually test fired for optimum reliability in a variety of environments.
The HM Monobloc barrel includes an integrally machined & patented gas block. Chambered in 5.56 NATO/223 Rem, the 4150 Chromoly Vanadium barrel features a 1:8 twist ratio and a mid-length gas system, with a manganese phosphate coated exterior, chrome lined bore, and match crown exclusive to Lead & Steel.
The L&S DLC M16 bolt carrier group is individually proof tested prior to coating, and is assembled using billet machined components and OCKS gas key fasteners.
Our patented free float rail utilizes a unique wedge-locking interface that does not stress the handguard like traditional clamp style free float rails.
The C.H.O.D.E. ambi charging handle has generous latch sizing and an included gas redirection port for reducing gas to face while shooting suppressed.
Our Enhanced Reliability Combat Trigger offers a flat face 3.5lb single stage rolling break, ideal for self defense or for competition use, with standard mil spec springs and hammer weight for reliable primer ignition.
Finally, our buffer tubes, receivers & rails are Type-III hard-coat anodized for added surface finish durability.
If you need a “one & done” AR-15, look no further than the ARC! Short enough for close engagements, with ample velocity stemming from the 12.5″ suppressor-ready chrome MonoBloc barrel. Find out why the ARC belongs in your stable!
FINISH DISCLAIMER:
Aluminum anodizing might as well be wizardry. Color options will always have some variance in shade & hue. Please understand that Lead & Steel makes no guarantees on the exact shade/hue of brown or black that you purchase.
These rifles are manufactured as duty grade equipment. You may find cosmetic evidence of testing & QC upon delivery. This is completely normal & allows us to deliver equipment that passes our strict QC/QA.

Before I can even begin talking about the ARC, I have to commend L&S’s customer service. I had a small request about the buffer tube, and these guys went above and beyond. They are very accomodating, and they do it without that stale corporate feel. They genuinely care, and it struck me enough to write out this review.
Everything about this thing is thought through. The construction, fit and finish are superb. The grip angle is great and makes carying the pistol with one hand very easy. The charging handle is of high quality, and the coating doesn’t scratch away just by charging it a few times. The rail quality and mounting mechanism is comparable to the Gucchi brands. Trigger feels great right out the box, and has a satisfying reset.
The BCG has to be the best part for me personally. The coating wipes clean without a hitch, the tolerances they built to are not just marketing fluff.
This thing rocks. Considering the price, if you’re gonna Form1 something; this is it.
