Description
The BT-15 HD MOD1 is B&T USA’s introductory AR-pattern 5.56 rifle that builds upon the MOD1 Carbine developed by Hodge Defense Systems and utilizes Hodge’s well-regarded pinch-lock handguard. The MOD2 improves on the MOD1 with Hodge’s upgraded S-lock, or spine-lock, handguard, a slightly heavier and more robust design. Both handguards are fully M-Lok compatible and eliminate any appreciable rail flex via precision fitting to the upper receiver.
B&T’s BT-15 MOD1 is available 16-inch barrel lengths coupled with a mid-length gas system or an ultra-nimble 11.5-inch barrel with a carbine-length gas system.
The BT-15 HD MOD2 is available with either a 16-in. barrel and a mid-length gas system or as an SBR 11.5-inch variant with a carbine-length gas system. A low-profile pinned gas block is ultra-reliable used with or without a suppressor and eliminates the failure point common with adjustable gas blocks. Barrels on both variants are match-grade and optimized for use with M855A1 EPR ammunition. They feature a constant taper profile, are cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined and free-floating and are thermally fitted to the upper receiver for durability and precision under demanding firing schedules.
What’s the difference between the MOD 1 and MOD 2?
The MOD 1’s receiver set is made from standard 7075 Aluminum and the lower has standard controls.
The MOD 2″ receiver set is made from C405 Aluminum, which is lighter and stronger than 7075 and the lower is fully ambidextrous.
The attached photos are of the Hodge versions. The BT version will be the same with the exception of the BT logo on the lower and the Swiss cross on each side of the handguard.
