Shark Coast Tactical | Tennessee AR-15 5.56 16in

The Shark Coast Tactical Tennessee “Battleship Grey Battleworn” AR-15 is a 5.56/.223 platform built with forged 7075 receivers, Magpul furniture, and a 16-inch barrel. It combines a carbine gas system with a low-profile gas block and a 15-inch M-LOK handguard for accessory flexibility. The rifle ships with a 30-round magazine and a distressed Cerakote finish intended to offer an intentional worn aesthetic while protecting exposed surfaces. For an optic under $1,000, the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 pairs well for both close-to-mid-range work and dynamic shooting scenarios.
