The Vision Behind the Build

Sometimes, the best builds don’t scream for attention—they whisper in precision. This setup started with a simple mission: create a streamlined, compact AR pistol that offers enhanced control, optical clarity, and reliable silence.
The WOOX Vigilante furniture served as the anchor. Combining classic American walnut with modern aluminum, it offered the aesthetic and tactile feel that set the tone. From there, we built a rig that moves fast, shoots flat, and feels good in the hand.

Range Performance

This rig excels in fast-paced, low-visibility environments. The Vigilante grip and stock layout provide phenomenal muzzle control during rapid strings. The 12.5” barrel length gives you ballistic advantages over shorter barrels while still clearing doorways with ease.
The EXPS3 paired with iron sights and the Cloud REIN light turns night into day. Even under nods or limited ambient light, you maintain clarity and confidence. The B&T suppressor makes everything run smoother, and the B5 grip keeps transitions sharp and natural.

Built for rapid response and refined control, this Vigilante-equipped AR pistol proves that beauty and performance can absolutely go hand in hand. It’s as much a tool of efficiency as it is a piece of art.
If you’re ready to redefine what your AR can be, start with the WOOX Vigilante and build from there.
