The Franklin Armory Praefector-M Militia 6.5 Creedmoor semi-auto AR-10 rifle is a purpose-built, ambi-ready platform designed for shooters who demand serious versatility without compromise. Built around Franklin Armory's proprietary billet upper and lower receivers—both machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished in hard-coat Type III anodized black—this AR-10 brings precision rifle capability to the modern sporting rifle platform. The 20-inch barrel is chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, a cartridge that's earned its reputation for long-range accuracy and flat trajectory, and features a 1/10-inch twist rate optimized for that round.
Every control on the Praefector-M Militia was engineered with ambi shooters in mind. You get bilateral safety selectors, bilateral bolt releases, and bilateral magazine releases—the whole system is ambidextrous. The flared magazine well speeds up reloads under time pressure, while the integral cold-weather trigger guard lets you operate the rifle with gloved hands. Franklin Armory's factory-tuned trigger provides the kind of break you expect from a precision rifle. The 14-inch FSR handguard includes a window cover assembly for clean cable routing, and the lower receiver features bilateral QD sling mounts for rapid deployment setups.
The rifle ships with a Magpul PRS stock—adjustable for comb height and length of pull to dial in your fit—and a Magpul PMag 20 LR/SR Gen 3 magazine. The direct impingement gas system and salt-bath-nitride bolt carrier group are proven designs that run clean and reliable. A comprehensive safety manual, California-certified cable lock, and lockable case come standard. The threaded muzzle accepts most suppressors and muzzle devices, though this model ships with a pinned and welded Triumvir device.
