Description
Griffin Armament’s MK1 AR-15 Series represents a fully-featured, quality, and value-packed carbine worthy of use as your primary carbine out of the box. Built as a system with each component working in harmony to create an incredibly soft-shooting platform suppressed or unsuppressed, while maintaining milspec tolerances for compatibility with other milspec parts on the market. This is not just another milspec AR, each component is finely tuned and tweaked to produce a superior system that just plain works.
The MK1 CQB 12.5″ .223 Wylde SBR is a true front line fighting carbine. The tuned mid-length gas system and suppressor optimized buffer system ensure a soft yet reliable gas system suppressed or unsuppressed. Griffin’s Anti-Rotation LOW-PRO Rails provide a rigid, yet lightweight handguard that is comfortable in the hand, yet robust enough to accommodate accessories such as lights and lasers. These rails have a tab that interfaces with the upper to prevent rotation of the rail under torque.
MK1 Firearms allow the end user to customize their build to fit their needs. Options include choice of muzzle device, furniture color, fixed or adjustable gas block, and milspec or gas pocket BCG. Users can also choose between Griffin’s time-tested 416R SS HEDP barrel, or our new 4140 CMV Chrome-Lined HEDP barrel – both of which provide exceptional accuracy and lifespan.
This rifle due to its barrel length transfers as an SBR and requires proper Form 4 paperwork to acquire, per the ATF. Please choose an NFA dealer at checkout and they will assist you with the transfer. As of 1/1/2026, Tax Stamps for SBRs are $0, but the paperwork still needs to be completed.

Jeff Evans –
After waiting 10 months for my 2 tax stamps I finally got to take out my MK1 11.5″ sbr and the Recee 5 can. This by far is my favorite suppressed SBR I have. Griffin armament design this package to pure perfection. My other sbr’s give me super gas face, so A+++ to Griffin on their gas tuning very minimal gas to the face. I could shoot this rifle all day long. If possible I would like to unload a picture of my Sbr while it was sitting for 10 months my class 3 dealer did a custom cerakote job.
