The 16″ barrel is machined from extra-strong 4150 carbon steel,FFL-near-me with a hard Nitride finish that really resists surface wear. The BRN-180 is chambered in .223 Wylde – for extra flexibility in ammo choice – with 1-8″ rifling, so it handles both .223 Remington and military-type 5.56mm NATO ammo with equal aplomb. Up front there’s a replica of the AR-180’s unusual three-prong flash hider: the hemispherical bottom prong helps prevent the muzzle blast from kicking up a dust signature when shooting prone. Standard ½-28 tpi muzzle threads let you swap on a modern AR-15 muzzle device should you be bitten by the customizing bug.

Who makes Brownells BRN-180?
BRN-180® Gen2 Overview
The new Brownells BRN-180® and BRN-180S® Gen2 upper receivers were designed in conjunction with PWS and FM Products to incorporate many improvements AR-15 creator Eugene Stoner made in the AR-18/AR-180 rifles originally introduced in the 1960s. Key features that make the BRN-180® the “revolutionary evolution” of the AR-15 platform include:
- Ultra-reliable, short stroke gas piston operating system
- NO buffer tube! Ideal for a folding stock/brace (see below)
- Can be fired with a folding stock FOLDED!
- Adjustable gas block lets you control gas flow for a sound suppressor
- Rock-solid Picatinny/M-LOK handguard easily detaches by removing ONE screw
- Compatible with any mil-spec AR-15 lower receiver
- Or mate to a dedicated Picatinny-stock ready BRN-180 lower
- AR-180-style 3-prong flash hider really quells the fireball
- Muzzle threads: 1/2″-28 tpi (.223) and 5/8″-24 tpi (300 BLK & 7.62×39)
