Engineered for Excellence: Core Specifications and Features

The Black Rain Ordnance Fission (UPC: 681565226243, SKU: BROSS2020FRSG) is built on a foundation of premium components and thoughtful design. Every element, from the receiver's striking finish to the internal operating system, contributes to its overall performance and user experience.

The Heart of the System: Caliber and Barrel

• Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO: The Fission is chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, a highly versatile and widely available cartridge. This allows for compatibility with both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition, offering shooters flexibility for training, sport shooting, or defensive applications. For those asking, "What's the difference between 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington, and which is better for an AR-15?", the Fission's chambering ensures optimal performance with both, making it an excellent all-around choice. This cartridge is known for its flat trajectory and manageable recoil, making it suitable for a wide range of shooting scenarios and skill levels.
• 16-inch Chrome Moly Barrel: A 16-inch barrel is a popular choice for AR-style rifles, striking an ideal balance between ballistic performance and maneuverability. This length allows for effective muzzle velocity while keeping the rifle compact enough for easy handling in various environments, from the shooting range to more dynamic tactical training. The barrel itself is constructed from Chrome Moly steel, a robust alloy known for its exceptional durability, resistance to heat, and long-term accuracy. This material choice ensures consistent performance even during prolonged shooting sessions, making it a reliable workhorse.
• A2 Flash Hider: Enhancing the barrel's functionality is the classic A2 flash hider. This military-proven muzzle device is highly effective at mitigating muzzle flash, which can preserve a shooter's night vision and reduce the rifle's signature, particularly important in low-light conditions or tactical situations. For users wondering, "How can I reduce muzzle flash on my AR-15?", the integrated A2 flash hider provides an immediate and effective solution.

Unmistakable Aesthetics and Robust Construction: The Receiver

• 7075-T6 Aluminum Receiver: The foundation of the Fission rifle is its receiver, meticulously machined from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum. This material is widely regarded as the gold standard for AR receivers due to its superior strength-to-weight ratio and exceptional durability. It ensures the rifle can withstand rigorous use and maintain structural integrity over its lifetime. For those researching "What is the best material for an AR-15 receiver?", 7075-T6 aluminum offers a definitive answer for its resilience and lightweight characteristics.
• Smith Grey Battleworn Cerakote Finish: Here's where the Black Rain Ordnance Fission truly distinguishes itself. The receiver is coated in a striking Smith Grey Battleworn Cerakote finish. Cerakote is a state-of-the-art ceramic-based coating renowned for its extreme durability, resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure, far surpassing traditional bluing or anodizing. The "Battleworn" treatment gives each rifle a unique, pre-aged, and rugged appearance, ensuring that no two Fission rifles are exactly alike. This finish not only protects the firearm from the elements but also provides a distinctive, tactical aesthetic that resonates with users who appreciate a rifle with character and a story. This unique visual appeal addresses the desire for a rifle that not only performs but also stands out in a crowded market.
• Optics Ready Platform: The Fission comes "Optics Ready," meaning it features a full-length Picatinny rail on the upper receiver, perfectly aligned for mounting your preferred optics. This provides immense flexibility, allowing users to choose from a wide array of red dot sights, holographic sights, magnified scopes, or iron sights to suit their specific shooting needs and preferences. For shooters asking, "What kind of optics should I put on my AR-15?" or "How do I mount a scope on an AR-15?", the Fission's integrated rail system offers a universal and secure mounting solution.

Enhanced Ergonomics and Modularity

• 15-inch Slim M-LOK Handguard: The Fission features a generous 15-inch slim M-LOK handguard. M-LOK (Modular Lock) is a popular rail attachment system that allows for direct accessory mounting, offering a lighter and more streamlined profile compared to traditional Picatinny rails. The extended length provides ample space for gripping, enhancing control and stability, while also accommodating a variety of accessories such as foregrips, lights, lasers, and bipods. The "slim" design ensures a comfortable hand feel and reduces overall weight. This handguard is ideal for users who prioritize modularity without sacrificing comfort or adding unnecessary bulk, answering the question, "What is the most versatile handguard system for an AR-15?"
• Adjustable Magpul Stock: The rifle is equipped with an adjustable Magpul stock. Magpul is a highly respected brand in firearm accessories, known for its ergonomic and durable designs. The adjustable nature of the stock allows shooters to easily customize the length of pull (LOP) to their body type, shooting stance, and whether they are wearing body armor. This adjustability ensures optimal comfort and control, leading to improved accuracy and reduced fatigue during extended shooting sessions.
• Black Magpul Grips: Complementing the stock are comfortable Black Magpul grips. These grips are designed for superior ergonomics, providing a secure and comfortable hold that enhances weapon control. The textured surface ensures a non-slip grip, even in adverse conditions or when hands are wet.

Reliable Internals: Operating System and Components

• Direct Impingement Operating System: The Black Rain Ordnance Fission utilizes the proven direct impingement (DI) gas operating system. In a DI system, gas from a fired cartridge is directed back through a tube to directly cycle the bolt carrier group. This design is favored for its simplicity, lighter weight, and reputation for accuracy due to fewer moving parts and less reciprocating mass. While some users might ask, "Are direct impingement AR-15s reliable?", the Fission's high-quality components ensure dependable operation.
• Nitride Coated SPEC15 Bolt Carrier Group (BCG): A critical component for reliability, the Fission features a Nitride Coated SPEC15 Bolt Carrier Group. Nitride coating (also known as Melonite or Tenifer) is a surface treatment that hardens the steel, significantly increasing its wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and lubricity. This results in a BCG that operates more smoothly, is easier to clean, and offers enhanced durability compared to standard phosphate or chrome-lined BCGs. For those wondering, "What's the best coating for an AR-15 bolt carrier group?", Nitride is a top contender for its superior performance characteristics.
• G.I. Trigger: The rifle is equipped with a reliable G.I. (Government Issue) trigger. While a standard military-style trigger, it offers a consistent pull and reset, making it a dependable choice for general shooting and training. Its familiarity ensures immediate usability for most AR-15 enthusiasts, and it provides a solid base for those who might consider aftermarket trigger upgrades in the future.
• Safety Selector Switch: The Fission includes a standard safety selector switch, providing clear and positive engagement for safe operation. Its intuitive placement allows for quick and easy manipulation by the right-handed shooter, ensuring firearm safety is always prioritized.

Capacity and Weight

• 30+1 Capacity: The Fission comes with a 30-round magazine, providing a standard and generous capacity for various shooting applications, from range training to competitive events. The "+1" signifies the ability to chamber an additional round, bringing the total capacity to 31 with one in the chamber. It utilizes standard AR-15 type magazines, ensuring wide compatibility and easy access to spares.
• Weight: 7.80 lbs: At 7.80 pounds, the Fission strikes a good balance between stability and portability. This weight contributes to reduced felt recoil and improved control during rapid firing, while still being manageable for extended periods of handling or carry.
• Overall Length (OAL): 34.50 inches: The rifle's overall length, combined with its adjustable stock, makes it a versatile platform suitable for a variety of shooting environments, offering a blend of stability and maneuverability.
