Strike Industries
Overview
The Strike Industries AR Carbine Flat Wire Spring is designed specifically for AR-15 and AR-10 platforms, providing reliable performance in a carbine-length configuration. The flat wire construction enhances durability and reduces the risk of coil binding, which can improve the overall function of your firearm. This spring is often found in builds featuring a mid-length gas system and 5.56 NATO caliber, making it a solid choice for builders focused on reliability and performance in their setups.
