If you are here, you know that Charlie's has a deep appreciation for Geissele products. And, why do a mix and match and create a kit? We made all the hard choices. Because not every Super Duty pistol is made for the same shooter, so we give you a choice.
Yes, a Charlie's exclusive, assembled by the gunsmiths at Potomac Armory, and distributed as a kit.
The Super Duty pistol kit from Potomac Armory features many of the same great ingredients of the Geissele Super Duty Rifle. The Duty short barreled upper receiver group is targeted toward police departments, individual law enforcement officers, and AR shooters looking for an upgraded durable and no-frills equipment. Geissele aims to bring a highly dependable, quality manufactured, and assembled upper at a price point for cost conscious shooters who demand optimal performance and reliability. Under the Duty line this is offered at a price that is accessible for Police Departments and the individual officer, as well as anyone looking for a Duty grade upper to depend upon.
This complete upper chambered in 5.56mm features an M4 receiver with a forward assist, dust cover, M4 feed ramps, houses a Geissele Reliability Enhanced Bolt Carrier Group (REBCG), and features bomb-proof installation of our Super Compact Gas Block, to ensure reliability and proper operation.
The handguard is a version of their MK16 Super Modular Rail currently fielded by USASOC and renowned by operators for their performance and comfort.
Charlie's Super Duty Pistol kit is built upon a solid foundation of a Geissele Super Duty factory upper receiver set (08-279B), a Geissele Super Duty lower built with a classic 2-stage trigger (G2S), the Maritime bolt catch, and Geissele standard lower parts kit. We top this off with a Geissele DDC buffer tube, containing a Super-42 spring and H3 buffer, a B5 Coyote pistol grip, and an SB Tactical SBA3 brace. If you are going to SBR this weapon, we can swap the brace for a B5 Bravo Stock in Coyote; just add a note to your order.
The Super Duty receivers are precision machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and each feature a mil-spec parts kit upgraded with Geissele’s Maritime bolt catch.
Note: This pistol kit has a barrel that is less than 16", and when mounted to a lower as a rifle becomes a short barreled rifle, which is subject to ATF registration under the National Firearms Act. The upper itself is not an NFA item, but can become part of an NFA item, and proper care must be taken and awareness of the National Firearms Act.
While a magazine shows in some pictures, no magazine will be shipped. No sights are included.
