GLFA 223 Wylde Braced Pistol .223 Wylde 30rd Magazine 7.5" Stainless Steel Barrel Wild Orchid Finish
Great Lakes Firearms
The Great Lakes Firearms 223 Wylde braced pistol delivers rifle-caliber performance in a compact, maneuverable platform built for shooters who want precision without the rifle footprint. Chambered in .223 Wylde, this AR pistol pairs a 7.5-inch nitride-treated 4150 CRMOV barrel with a 1:8 twist rate, giving you the flexibility to run both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition. The 30-round magazine capacity means you're ready for extended range sessions, competition, or serious home defense. The Wild Orchid Cerakote finish isn't just eye-catching—it's a durable coating that handles hard use and the elements.
Built on proven AR architecture, this pistol uses a billet aluminum 7075 lower receiver paired with a forged aluminum upper, both materials you know will hold zero and take a beating. The 15.25-inch aluminum M-LOK handguard with full-length top Picatinny rail gives you the modularity AR shooters crave, whether you're mounting optics, lights, or specialty accessories. The 0.750-inch gas block keeps the system running reliably, while the mil-spec trigger provides familiar, predictable control. Threading at 1/2x28 matches standard .223/5.56 suppressors and muzzle devices—the pistol ships with a custom muzzle device already installed.
The G-Force Ace of Brace adjustable 5-position pistol brace is the real game-changer here. It provides a solid, repeatable cheek weld and improves controllability over unsupported shooting, and the adjustability means you can dial it in for your body mechanics and setup. If you're building a truck gun, a specialized training platform, or just want the handling advantages of a short-barreled rifle cartridge in a legal, accessible form, this GLFA pistol checks every box.
