Anderson Manufacturing AM-15 Utility 5.56 NATO AR-15 Rifle

The Anderson Manufacturing AR-15 5.56 Review

Anderson Manufacturing is one of the most renowned AR-15 manufacturers in America and have been pumping out top-notch products for more than 30 years. Bringing cost-effective firearms to the masses has always been their goal, and the AM-15 Utility is yet another example of this ethos. Built on a pair of forged 7075-T6 aluminum receivers, this rifle is built for longevity.

Its 16″ barrel is crafted from 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel and is given a Nitride finish for long term durability. Legendary and effective AR-15 components are also included such as an A2 flash hider, A2 pistol grip, and 6-position carbine butt stock. For optional customization, the AM-15 Utility comes with a 12-inch free-float M-LOK handguard that allows mounting of lights, lasers, foregrips and more.

Additionally, a Picatinny rail section on the top of the handguard near the muzzle end is ideal for adding a front sight or other accessories. Utility doesn”t have to cost an arm and a leg, and this rifle is proof of that fact.
