AR-15 Bolt Face T-Shirt

The view down the bolt face of America's most-owned modern rifle. Every AR-15 owner who's ever cleaned the rifle, swapped a bolt carrier group, or stripped down to inspect the locking lugs has stared at this exact geometry — eight locking lugs arranged around a central firing pin hole, the extractor cutout at one o'clock, the ejector plunger to the side, and the polished face that holds 5.56×45mm NATO cartridges in battery while delivering Eugene Stoner's gas-impingement design to over 100 million users worldwide. The AR-15 platform — adopted by the U.S. military as the M16 in 1964, evolved through the M16A1, A2, A4, M4 carbine, M4A1, and the civilian sport rifles and patrol carbines now in millions of American gun safes — owes its reliability and accuracy in part to the rotating bolt design, the same one Stoner adapted from the Johnson rifle and refined for high-velocity small caliber service. This shirt is the bolt face you've stared at a thousand times, finally on the front of your chest. Built for AR-15 and M4 owners, civilian sport shooters, M16-era military veterans, GWOT veterans, gunsmiths, range instructors, second amendment supporters, and anyone who's ever held a stripped bolt up to the light to inspect the locking lug wear.
