Discover the PWS MK118 MOD 2-M Rifle — a premium, precision-oriented AR-15 platform engineered for unmatched accuracy, reliability, and versatility. Chambered in .223 Wylde, this rifle features an 18″ 416R stainless steel barrel with a 1:8 twist rate, delivering exceptional ballistics, flat trajectories, and sub-MOA accuracy with quality match-grade ammunition.
