A Classic AR-15 Design

The Brownells Model BRN-601® AR-15 Rifle is designed to offer AR-15 enthusiasts with a faithful reproduction of the first-ever AR-15 issued to the U.S. Military during the early 1960s, allowing them to add a classic element to their AR collection.



The Brownells Model BRN-601® AR-15 Rifle holds true to the design of the iconic Model 601 rifle, which entered military service with the U.S. Air Force and other military units in SE Asia during the early years of the 1960s. The rifle is constructed from all-new parts and features green furniture and slab-side receivers that are close to the original design envisioned by Eugene Stoner.
