The modern Enfield Rifle Company is a brand-new company located in Clayton, Georgia, and they just so happen to be big fans of ours. The first of their product line available is the MERC415 carbine, named as such due to it being an M4-style AR-15. The upper receiver is forged from T6 7075 A3 style aluminum and features M4 feed cuts, engraved T-marks, and a 16″ M4 profile barrel made from 4150 CMV steel, with a 1:7 twist. The lower receiver is also forged from T6 7075 aluminum and is mil 8625 type III hard coat anodized with a mil-sized 6-position buffer tube and rear receiver sling loop. The MERC415 is built to MERC’s own Mil-G.R.A.D.E. (Military-Government Requirements and Data Equivalent) standard. This is Enfield’s term to describe their firearms, built similarly to what is marketed as a mil-spec weapon, without any implications that its design follows the US Government Technical Data Package’s exact specifications.

Enfield Rifle Company has a great-looking website that is currently up-and-running, and features the full specifications of their MERC415 carbine, along with further explanation of the Mil-G.R.A.D.E. term, and how it differs from mil-spec. At the moment, MERC is currently seeking only one official dealer in each state due to overseas commitments, although the MERC415 can be directly ordered through the company and delivered to your FFL of choice.
