The Knight’s Armament SR-15 stripped lower receiver — KAC’s “Stoner Rifle” marked, 7075-T6 aluminum, forged and finished to military TDP specifications.
- KAC SR-15 forged lower: 7075-T6 aluminum alloy, Type III Class 2 hardcoat anodized — the same spec as KAC’s military-contract receivers
- Traditional TDP-compliant dimensions: all pin holes are standard mil-spec, compatible with any mil-spec trigger, safety, and parts kit
- Virgin receiver: shipped from KAC as a lower only — eligible for pistol builds under federal law
- Discontinued from manufacture: KAC ceased production of the standalone SR-15 stripped lower in 2020
The KAC SR-15 lower is one of the better-regarded AR-15 lower receivers ever produced. Knight’s Armament forged these from 7075-T6 aluminum — the same alloy and temper used in military-contract M4 and M16 receivers — and finished them with Type III Class 2 hardcoat anodizing for a durable, uniform matte surface. The “Stoner Rifle” rollmark on the magwell distinguishes this as a KAC product, and the fit and finish reflect the tolerances KAC maintains across its military and commercial production lines.
For clone builders, the SR-15 lower serves as a high-quality foundation for any AR-15-pattern build. It is not a program-specific lower (the M110 SASS, Mk11, and SR-25 have their own dedicated KAC lowers with different markings and dimensions), but it is a KAC-manufactured receiver that carries the Stoner Rifle lineage. All pin-hole dimensions are traditional mil-spec, so any standard mil-spec trigger group, safety selector, bolt catch, and magazine release will drop in without modification.
The “virgin” designation means this receiver left KAC’s factory as a stripped lower — it was never assembled into a rifle. Under federal law, a receiver that has never been part of a rifle may be built as either a rifle or a pistol. Builders planning a pistol-length or SBR configuration should verify compliance with their state laws before building.
