The Barrett REC7 is a powerful and reliable rifle styled in the
familiar AR configuration. It’s a no-nonsense rifle designed
to answer the call for a low-maintenance, enhanced-reliability
carbine. The Barrett REC7exceeds expectations operators demand
from today’s new breed of piston-operated rifles.
The Barrett REC7 rifle’s dependability stems from its innovative operating
system. Using a minimum number of parts, the piston system
separates heat and powder residue from the bolt carrier and
trigger assembly. The rifle runs cool and clean, resulting in
reduced maintenance requirements and increased endurance.
The patented, chrome-lined, fluted gas chamber design prevents
excessive carbon buildup from impairing operation under adverse
conditions. This in turn allows the one-piece, 17-4 stainless piston
to transfer energy to the anti-tilt bolt carrier. Machined from a
monolithic block of 8620 steel, the carrier features an integral
piston strike face. There is no separate gas key to shoot loose,
and the nickel Teflon® coating increases lubricity and simplifies
cleaning. The Barrett Enhanced Piston Bolt is made from nickel
Teflon coated 9310 steel. The bolt’s gas ring-free design is easy to
clean and operates smoothly. Reinforced at critical areas,
every bolt is proofed and magnetic-particle inspected to guarantee
reliable performance.
At the heart of the system is the nitrided, two-position
(suppressed/unsuppressed) gas regulator that retains the
piston. The piston can be accessed through the gas block without
removing the handguard, so optical sights or laser devices do not
need to be re-zeroed after routine maintenance. The top of the
gas block also has an integral 1913 rail, extending the rail length
for mounting accessories or sights.
The Barrett REC7 rifle’s forged 7075 aluminum upper and lower receivers
are type 3 hardcoat anodized. The lower houses an ultradependable,
mil-spec single stage trigger. The upper supports a
free-floated, 16-inch hammer forged, chrome-lined barrel with
M4 feed ramps machined into both the receiver and the barrel
extension. A mil-spec A2 flash hider protects the muzzle.
The Barrett REC7, in 5.56 NATO and 6.8 SPC, can protect home, precinct or
border with unsurpassed reliability. The Barrett REC7 is what you expect in
a Barrett. Reliable. Powerful.
