Barrett REC7 .223/5.56 | 16 in | 30rd | 19726

The Barrett REC7 is a purpose-built modern sporting rifle chambered for .223 Rem / 5.56×45 NATO with a 16″ barrel and a 30-round magazine capacity. It pairs common industry components — Magpul furniture, an ALG QMS trigger, and a slimline M-LOK handguard — with a black anodized 7075-T6 receiver set for durability in field use. For an optic under $1,000 that complements the REC7’s role, a Vortex Viper PST 1-6×24 (or comparable 1-6x low-power variable) provides a versatile sight picture for both close and intermediate-range work.

Typical applications include range training and competition use such as 3-Gun or similar dynamic matches where quick target acquisition and modular accessories are valued.
