Recon CQB – Pistol

Price range: $2,020.00 through $2,205.00

The 360 Precision Recon CQB 12.5″ AR Pistol is a premium 5.56 NATO / .223 Wylde tactical AR pistol built for close-quarters performance with extended mid-range capability. Designed for law enforcement, home defense, and serious shooters, this compact AR-15 pistol delivers precision accuracy, ambidextrous control, and duty-grade reliability in a maneuverable 12.5-inch platform.

At the core of the Recon CQB is a 12.5″ Criterion Core Series chrome-lined barrel chambered in .223 Wylde, widely regarded as one of the most accurate duty-grade barrels available. The .223 Wylde chamber allows safe and reliable use of both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition while maintaining tight, repeatable groups. The 12.5″ barrel length hits the ideal balance between maneuverability and ballistic performance, offering improved velocity and terminal performance compared to shorter 10.3″ or 11.5″ AR pistol configurations.

Built on a billet 7075-T6 ambidextrous HD15 Gen2 lower and matching upper receiver, this AR-15 style pistol features true ambidextrous controls, a 3.5 lb flat trigger, custom-tuned buffer system, and SBA3 adjustable brace for enhanced stability and recoil management. The 11.75″ M-LOK handguard provides ample room for weapon lights, optics, and accessories, making it an ideal tactical AR pistol setup.

The Recon CQB includes a Toolcraft DLC bolt carrier group, VG6 GAMMA 556 muzzle brake, melonite gas tube, and premium small components engineered for durability and consistent cycling. Weighing just 6.1 lbs and measuring 28.25″ collapsed, this compact 12.5″ AR pistol is optimized for tight environments without sacrificing accuracy or reliability.

Every 360 Precision Recon CQB Pistol is built and assembled in-house in Warminster, PA using top-tier components and strict quality control standards. If you’re searching for a high-quality 12.5-inch AR pistol for home defense, duty use, or tactical applications, the Recon CQB delivers professional-grade performance without compromise.
