Performance upgrades abound in the SPEC OPS Type 15. The fire control group gets a boost with Hiperfire's EDT2 Heavy Gunner trigger, known for its crisp single-stage pull. WATCHTOWER's own Tru-Black PVD coated Durabolt BCG adds durability and weather resistance, while the barrel options cater to diverse preferences: choose between a 5.56 NATO or .223 Wylde barrel, both featuring a mid-length gas system for balanced performance.

Further enhancing user experience is the 13.7-inch S7M free-floating handguard, offering ample space for mounting accessories via M-LOK slots and Picatinny rails. WATCHTOWER's Flat Face muzzle brake helps manage recoil, while the B5 B5-reinforced polymer furniture ensures a comfortable and secure grip.

Whether you're a seasoned gun enthusiast or a law enforcement professional seeking a dependable tool, the WATCHTOWER SPEC OPS Type 15 aims to impress with its blend of precision engineering, military heritage, and user-friendly features.
