$899.00
Description
The Great Lakes Firearms GL-15 .223 Wylde is a semi-automatic rifle built on the popular AR-15 platform and chambered in .223 Wylde, a chamber specification that safely and accurately accommodates both .223 Remington and 5.56×45 mm NATO cartridges.
It combines robust construction with good value, making it a solid choice for shooters who want an all-around rifle for target shooting, varmint or predator hunting, home defense, or training without spending a premium. Many owners find it performs well for its price range, though aftermarket upgrades (trigger, sights, handguard accessories) are common.
