Brownells BRN-180: New Uppers Available Chambered in 300 BLK

Pistols and SBRs continue to grow in popularity. More shooters seemingly want highly-concealable, highly-portable long guns or AR pistols chambered in formidable calibers. Now with the Brownells BRN-180 upper, shooters can build their own rifle in 300 BLK, complete with a folding stock, suppressor and more.

Brownells BRN-180 Uppers

The Brownells BRN-180 uppers combine features form the classic AR-180 design. But it now includes modern upgrades, including a full-length Picatinny rail and free-float M-LOK handguards.

All BRN-180 Gen2 uppers accommodate folding stocks or braces. The design completely contains the recoil mechanism, so no buffer tube assembly required.

The BRN-180 Gen2 also utilizes a new method to secure the handguard and adjustable gas block. The design helps the platform work well with suppressors, according to Brownells.

The newest model utilizes a 10-inch barrel chambered in 300 AAC Blackout. Other Gen2 BRN-180 uppers chamber 223 Wylde. For more information, visit brownells.com.
