Most Accurate AR-15 Barrels For Sun Devil SD-15 20 Inch Model...

Many AR-15 fans are just out to plink and have fun... but some of us are on a quest for the most accurate, most functional rifle we can get our hands on. When Sun Devil set out to build the ultimate AR-15 rifle they wanted it to look different than anyone else's rifles with clean lines and great styling, but they were also committed to have it outperform all available AR-15 platform rifles on the market... and they did just that!

They use only match grade barrels from Lothar Walther which have all had the match bolt hand fitted, lapped, squared and head spaced for the perfect custom fit for each individual barrel. They will outshoot anything out there! The SD-15 20 inch model has a heavy (but not bull) barrel for great balance as well as accuracy. My bull barreled 24 inch Les Baer shoots great, but is a heavy beast and I never shoot it off-hand... but my Sun Devil feels great.

Sun Devil AR-15 Colored Receiver Sets... CNC Machined From Billet Aluminum!

I was able to this picture from the guys at Sun Devil to show their colored receiver sets. If the fit wasn't already incredible... when you get both the upper and lower receiver from Sun Devil Mfg... the fit is UNBELIEVABLE. Their receivers take all mil-spec parts but I highly recommend getting a matched set if you can. The quality is worth it.

If you're looking to build a race gun for the next match you wont find a more accurate, sexier rifle than a Sun Devil with a color anodized receiver. This picture is of their standard colored anodizing options...

Sun Devil AR15 Images...

I don't have any nice photos of my own. But here are a few pics I found online that show some of the incredible quality and finish of the Sun Devil line of AR-15 products. I just took my M4 style 16 inch out to see how she would do at 100 yards. Out of three groups I shot once it was sighted in... the biggest group measured just under an inch and the smallest was about 3/4 inch... amazing for a shorty!

Anyway... check out the pics... this billet stuff is nice!

Sun Devil Mfg. Builds Complete AR-15 Rifles!

The answer is YES...! I have already received several emails asking me if, in fact, Sun Devil Mfg. builds complete rifles. The emails I am receiving almost all say "I thought they just made lower receivers"... well, I own three SD-15 rifles that were entirely built at Sun Devil's facility in Mesa Arizona. It is also interesting to learn how many people don't realize that they make upper and lower receiver sets as well. The matched sets are completely CNC machined from billet aluminum and have the best fit and finish in the industry. Unlike other billet receiver mfgs. they keep their price affordable too.

If you haven't seen their "Devilcoat" nickle teflon finish... you haven't seen the sexiest dang AR out there then...

If you are happy with run of the mill off the shelf parts... that's okay. But if you really want to build a nice rig... Sun Devil is the only way to go! I just found these pics on AR15.com... I think this rifle was built by Ranier Arms??

Sun Devil Mfg. Unveils Their 6.5 Inch SBR At The Shot Show

Sun Devil Manufacturing
Until recently a relatively-unknown OEM manufacturer, the Mesa, Arizona-based Sun Devil debuted a 6.5” barreled AR-15 built on their own receiver, which is machined from billet aluminum. Chambered in .223, and classified as a Short-Barreled Rifle, the truncated SD-15 Entry Gun is a formidable weapon for home (or even vehicle) defense, and features a unique gas system designed to circumvent the usual function problems that come with short-barreled AR’s. Look for an optional gas piston variant in the near future. Longer-barreled models are also available, for those who cannot legally own Class III weapons.

Smith & Wesson AR-15 Made By Sun Devil Mfg.?

I have only had this blog up for a little over a week and I have already received several emails asking if Sun Devil is the manufacturer for Smith and Wesson Performance M&P Ar-15 rifles. All I can tell everyone is that the Smith and Wesson Performance Center 20 inch AR-15 looks an awful lot like my SD-15 20 inch and that I saw nearly a room full of Soft Rifle cases with the Smith and Wesson logo embroidered on the side when I took a tour of their facility. I also heard a former Sun DEvil employee refer to my rifle as the "Smith & Wesson style."

The owner wont really say... you can look at the pics and use your imagination I guess...
