Description
The 10.5" barrel is the sweet spot for .300 AAC Blackout, and TacFire built this kit around exactly that. This length gives you most of the velocity you'd get from a 16" barrel in a package that's noticeably shorter and easier to handle, which is why so many folks land on 10.5" for suppressed and short-barrel builds. It runs both supersonic and heavy subsonic loads well, so you can swap between quiet plinking and hard-hitting range work depending on what you feed it.
What Comes in the TacFire .300 Blackout Kit
This is a genuinely loaded kit. You get a .300 AAC Blackout 10.5" parkerized steel barrel, a .308 spiral fluted flash can with crush washer, a .750 low-profile gas block, a pistol-length gas tube with pin, and an ultra-slim 7" clamp-on M-LOK free float handguard. On the receiver side there's a stripped billet upper machined for 5.56/.223/.300 with M4 feed ramps, a 5.56 NATO bolt carrier group that's been MPI tested and nitride coated, a mil-spec charging handle with steel latch, plus a dust cover and forward assist. The lower components include a USA-made lower parts kit, an A2-style pistol grip, receiver end plate, castle nut, pistol buffer tube with foam, and a 3 oz buffer with spring. The 5/8"x24 muzzle threads are the standard pitch for .300 BLK cans and brakes, so mounting is straightforward.
Finishing Your TacFire AR Pistol Build
One thing worth knowing up front: this is a build kit, not a complete firearm. You'll supply a stripped lower receiver to complete the project, since the same nitride bolt works for both 5.56 and .300 Blackout. Basic assembly tools like an armorer's wrench, punch set, and torque wrench make the job smooth. For a lot of builders that's the whole appeal here. You control every part of the setup and learn the platform inside and out, and you end up with a compact .300 BLK host that's a natural fit for a suppressor down the road.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the TacFire .300 Blackout kit include a lower receiver?
No, this is a build kit rather than a complete firearm. You'll need to supply your own stripped lower receiver to finish the build. Everything else needed to complete the upper and dress out the lower is in the box, including the lower parts kit and buffer assembly.
Do I need a special bolt for .300 Blackout?
You don't. The included 5.56 NATO bolt carrier group works for both .223/5.56 and .300 AAC Blackout, since they share the same bolt face. The kit's BCG is MPI tested and nitride coated, so it's ready to run right out of the box.
Is the 10.5" barrel a good length for .300 Blackout?
It's widely considered the sweet spot for the cartridge. A 10.5" barrel recovers most of the supersonic velocity of a 16" barrel in a much more compact package, and subsonic performance stays nearly flat. That combination makes it a strong choice for suppressed use and short, maneuverable builds.
What thread pitch is the muzzle on this kit?
The barrel is threaded 5/8"x24, which is the standard pitch for .300 Blackout muzzle devices and suppressors. The kit ships with a .308 spiral fluted flash can and crush washer already, so you can run it as-is or swap in the muzzle device or can of your choice.
