From the meticulously machined Grey Ghost lower to the supremely functional WOOX Vigilante grip , every part was selected for its ability to deliver both performance and feel. The addition of a Law Tactical Folder makes this rifle easily stowable without compromising deployment time, while the Aero Lahar suppressor helps tame the sound signature for both range work and professional scenarios.
Real-World Feel and Function
What stands out immediately when shouldering this rifle is the perfect synergy between ergonomics and responsiveness. The Vigilante grip, crafted from American walnut, offers a tactile warmth that contrasts beautifully with the dark, matte finish of the receivers. Its shape naturally guides the hand into position, giving you a confident, repeatable hold.
The Aimpoint Comp M2 optic, paired with the Maritime Bolt Catch, ensures you’re always on target and in control—even during fast-paced manipulations. Reloads feel faster with the Odin Works mag release, while the Chopstop brace adds stability in a minimalist footprint.
There’s a purposeful aggression to how this rifle moves and handles. It feels compact without sacrificing capability—tight in corners, solid in shoulder, and fast on target.
This build isn’t just another AR—it’s an expression of identity. From the heritage-inspired Vigilante grip to the high-speed performance parts, every detail was chosen with intention.
It proves that functionality doesn’t have to come at the expense of personality. And in a world full of copy-paste rifles, this one dares to be different. For anyone building their own version of the ultimate black rifle, this Vigilante-inspired platform is a worthy benchmark.
