Radical RF15 5.56 NATO 16in. Barrel 30+1 B5 Stock/Grip

I bought this rifle 2026 while on sale. Off the bat it felt really nice in the hands; Not overly heavy, felt well balanced for the material that is being used, and already comes with good comfort in the stock and grip. After firing 100+ rounds in it so far I have had only one malfunction and that was on the first shot. After that I have not ran into any further issues while firing so far.

Once I cited my red dot on it, it felt amazing with good grouping for the price and you do not feel a lot of gas blow back while firing either. Slowly going to be adding more attachments to it as I go but out of the box with a little bit of lubricant felt amazing.

Very Impressed 

I’ve been very impressed with the Radical Firearms RF-15. Out of the box, the fit and finish are solid, and it feels well-built without being overly heavy. Reliability has been excellent—I’ve put a good amount of rounds through it with no malfunctions, even using different types of ammo.

Accuracy is better than expected for a rifle in this price range. It shoots consistently and holds groups well, making it a great option for both range use and general purpose shooting. The trigger is smooth enough for practical use, and the rifle balances nicely, which makes it comfortable during longer sessions.

For the value, the RF-15 is hard to beat. It offers dependable performance, good accuracy, and solid construction without the premium price tag. Whether you’re a first-time AR owner or looking for a reliable addition to your collection, this rifle delivers exactly what it promises. Highly recommended.

Just purchased this rifle yesterday and tried it out at the range today and it performed perfectly.  If you're looking for a starter AR you cannot go wrong with the RF-15.  10/10
