In the realm of versatile firearms, the SU-16 series stands out as a paragon of design and utility. Engineered with precision, this Sport Utility rifle is crafted to meet the needs of any marksman, whether in sport or field applications. The SU-16B model exemplifies these attributes with its chambering in .223 Remington—a caliber renowned for its balance between power and control.
At the heart of this firearm lies a gas piston-operated semi-auto action that minimizes fouling, ensuring reliability across various conditions. This system works harmoniously with a 16-inch light profile barrel treated with salt bath nitride coating for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. A rifling twist rate of 1:7 inches optimizes bullet stabilization, delivering accuracy when it matters most.
Practicality has not been overlooked; the polymer handguard ingeniously deploys into a bipod, providing stability during extended shooting sessions. For those who appreciate adaptability in their optics setup, an integrated Picatinny-style rail sits atop the receiver—ready to accommodate your favored sighting system.
The front sight is fashioned from robust 6061 T-6 aluminum and can be removed if so desired while an adjustable rear peep sight ensures precise target acquisition. With convenience at its core, this rifle accepts standard AR-15 magazines and includes a lightweight 10-round polymer magazine designed for immediate use.
Thoughtful engineering extends to storage capabilities within the stock itself—capable of housing two spare proprietary magazines or one larger capacity option such as a 20/30 rounder—to keep you prepared without unnecessary bulk.
Compactness meets functionality as both stock and trigger mechanism fold forward efficiently reducing overall length to just under twenty-five inches when compacted yet extending smoothly outwards up to thirty-six inches ready for action on demand.
Whether you're navigating through dense brush or setting sights downrange at distant targets—the Kel-Tec SU-16B offers unmatched versatility combined seamlessly into every feature.
