NEW BRN-180® GEN3 FEATURES:

NONRECIPROCATING LEFT-SIDE CHARGING HANDLE: Gets the charging handle out of the way of the ejection port area and eliminates the flying hunk of metal every time you fire a shot. Left side position enables a better "division of labor" between firing and support hands.

Improved Charging Handle Ergonomics: The handle now angles downwards, so it's easy to grasp without having to wrangle your hand around your optic. This also makes manually locking back the bolt much easier.

Sealed Receiver Slot: An open charging handle slot would be a magnet for dirt, dust, and debris, so we've sealed it with a special Swiss-inspired rubber gasket that lets the handle move freely but keeps foreign matter out.

"Automatic" Ejection Port Cover: We've replaced the AR-15 type cover with a cover attached to the bolt-carrier assembly that cycles with the action and seals the gap behind the carrier when the bolt is forward. You never have to manipulate it yourself.

Easy-Adjust Gas System: Simply reach through the opening in the handguard to flip the lever between the Suppressed, Normal, and Adverse gas settings. No tools needed. Lever is easy to disassemble for cleaning, too, with the handguard removed.

Stronger Handguard Attachment: The contact surface between the handguard and the barrel, not exactly skimpy before, is longer, resulting in a very rigid handguard attachment with almost no flex, a very stable foundation for aiming devices.

Ambi QD Sling Sockets: Added to the top rear of the handguard for more versatility in attaching a sling. The socket cups have a hardened STEEL insert to prevent the swivel from wearing the surrounding aluminum of the handguard.

Recoil Guide Rod Retainer: When your upper is pivoted open or removed from the lower receiver, this keeps the guide rod/recoil spring assembly from popping out the back. Simply hit the release button when it's time to remove the recoil assembly.

Cleaner Muzzle Device Fitment: A flange added just behind the muzzle threads let you install muzzle devices for .750" O.D. barrels without the special adapters needed on previous 180 generations for a clean transition from the.600" O.D. barrel.

Improved Guide Rod Springs: Made of flat wire with more "oomph" to push the bolt-carrier fully forward into battery, even when the gun is heavily fouled and in need of a serious cleaning.

Anti-Bounce Bolt-Carrier Upgrade: A protrusion kicks the carrier to the side when going into battery to prevent it from bouncing to the rear. This ensures it's full in battery when the firing pin releases, eliminating the risk of light primer strikes.

Steel Cam Path: A full-length steel cam path inside the receiver cuts down on wear from the much harder steel carrier, extending receiver life during extensive shooting, especially with sound suppressors.
