Product Overview

Premium Flip-Up Sights/Room To Grow/Sub-MOA Accuracy

The Recruit model AR15 platform rifle, chambered in .223 Wylde, offered by Rooftop Arms is a top-of-the-line build geared toward the shooter who wants a premium rifle but isn’t quite ready to “pull the trigger” on a premium optic. The advantage of the .223 Wylde chamber is it will shoot both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO safely and accurately. Due to popular demand, Rooftop Arms went away from our typical optics-mounted routine for this model. The Recruit model has many of the same premium parts offered with every other Rooftop Arms model however instead of an optic, it’s topped with some of the best flip-up sights money can buy. This allows the customer to head to the range with a fully functional Sub-MOA AR15 without having to purchase the optic upfront.

Rifle ships with premium carrying case, bore boss cleaner, 4 30rd Lancer L5AWM magazines

Customer Reviews

Dear Rooftop Arms: I can’t thank you enough for the pleasant experience utilizing your company. Most people are very hesitant to purchase an item costing vast amounts of money, especially when it is an out-of-state online purchase. Not to mention, requiring two separate tax stamps! You’ve been on top of everything when it comes to NFA items and your communication has been there every step of the way. The build of the firearm I purchased is beautiful as well as quality. I’ll be sure to keep you on my list of trusted firearm dealers. Thank you for being forthright and knowledgeable when it comes to purchasing ATF regulated items. You’ve made the process seem easy which is what people like to see more than anything! I’m sure we will do business again in the future. God bless.

I am not usually one to do reviews however with something of this nature and wishing to share my experience, I felt it prudent to share. I have spent an immense amount of time researching how to build, what parts to purchase, and every other thing imaginable to build a matching set of AR-10 and AR-15. I wish I would have saved hours and found Rooftop Arms first! Let’s hit the high points: Made in America, Veteran owned, GREAT customer service. They had the ability to build the exact rifles I wanted with high-quality parts, and a difficult paint job that came out perfectly! Every step of this build far exceeded what I was hoping to get at the end. Spending a large amount of money, over $15,000, I wanted these rifles to be utterly amazing and they sure are! The highlight was Erin giving me a call and telling me my build was ready to be picked up. A few hundred rounds through both rifles and I am very happy! The last add-on will be to get my tax stamp through so I can add on my suppressor. They are walking me through that process as well. Thanks, Rooftop Arms!

Working with Rooftop Arms was a seamless process. I bought their Ruby model AR15 rifle. Not only is the rifle absolutely stunning, but they made the California compliant process a breeze. I ended up with a beautiful gun that is always the talk of the range when I show up. I’m a very small frame lady, and the Ruby model is flawless and shoots better than any other AR15 I have ever shot! Don’t hesitate to call Rooftop Arms for all of your high-end firearm needs, you won’t be disappointed!
