Overview

The Radical Firearms RF-15 Pistol is the AR-pistol member of the RF-15 family, built on the same forged 7075-T6 MIL-STD upper and lower receivers as the rifle. The most common configuration pairs a 10.5-inch 4140 chrome-moly vanadium M4-profile barrel (Melonite finish, 1:7 twist, 1/2x28 thread, A2 flash hider) with a carbine-length direct-impingement gas system, a .750 low-profile gas block, and a 10-inch free-float RPR M-LOK handguard. It ships on a pistol-length buffer tube-frequently with an SB Tactical SBA3 brace from distributors-and feeds from a 30-round magazine. Compact and suppressor-friendly, the RF-15 Pistol is a budget-priced home-defense and range platform offered in 5.56 NATO, .300 Blackout, and 7.62x39, with barrel lengths from 7.5" to 10.5". MSRP for the 10.5" 5.56 model is approximately $686.
