Known for their high end rifles and handguns, Wilson Combat is now making a large frame .308 pattern AR.  The new rifle will be from the BILLet-AR line and will be a very light 7.7lbs.  Using SR25 patterned magazines, there will be a large amount of after market magazines for the end user.  There are three different barrel lengths available, 14.7″, 16″ and 18″ for those looking for a little more barrel length.

I have no doubt that coming from Wilson Combat that these rifles will be solid performers, and every bit as accurate as their claim.  Check out their press release below.
