Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Franklin Armory did something genuinely different with the Reformation RS11. Instead of a traditional rifled bore, it uses the company's patented NRS barrel technology, a straight cut land and groove design that puts this 11.5 inch 5.56 NATO firearm in a category all its own. Pull it out of the box and it already wears the kind of upgrades most folks spend months adding to a standard AR build: a Triumvir flash hider up front, a Magpul SL-K adjustable stock out back, and an Ergo ambidextrous grip in your hand.
The headline feature here is the Binary AR-Elite trigger. In binary mode, the RS11 fires one round when you pull the trigger and another when you release it, which lets you run split times that a standard semi-auto trigger just cannot touch. Flip the selector and it behaves like a conventional trigger for slow, deliberate work. It is a genuinely fun system on the range and a big part of why people seek this model out over a run-of-the-mill carbine.
The RS11 is built on aluminum upper and lower receivers with a hardcoat anodized black finish, a low profile gas system, and a free float M-LOK handguard for lights, hand stops, or whatever else you like to run. The flat top Picatinny rail ships clean with no sights installed, so you can drop on a red dot or LPVO and zero it your way. Every part is 100 percent American made, which has been a point of pride for Franklin Armory since the beginning.
It ships with a 30 round magazine for a 30 plus 1 capacity and runs standard .223 Rem and 5.56 NATO ammunition. Because the straight cut barrel does not spin-stabilize projectiles the way a rifled bore does, the RS11 shines at close to mid range distances, right where a compact 11.5 inch platform makes the most sense anyway. For home use, training drills, or just an absolute blast of a range day, this one delivers.
The Binary AR-Elite trigger has a selectable binary mode that fires one round when you pull the trigger and a second round when you release it. This effectively doubles your rate of fire compared to a standard semi-auto trigger. You can also switch the selector to standard mode, where it functions like a conventional trigger for slower, more precise shooting.
It accepts standard .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition and feeds from common AR-pattern magazines. Because the patented NRS barrel uses straight cut lands and grooves instead of traditional rifling, the platform is at its best at close to mid range distances. Franklin Armory also offers purpose-built NRS ammunition designed specifically for this barrel if you want to stretch it further.
No, it ships without sights. The flat top Picatinny rail and M-LOK handguard give you a clean slate for a red dot, LPVO, or backup iron sights of your choosing. Plan on adding a sighting system before your first range trip.
Quite a few. This configuration includes the Binary AR-Elite trigger, a Triumvir flash hider, a Magpul SL-K adjustable stock, an Ergo ambidextrous grip, and a low profile gas system, all installed at the factory. Franklin Armory also builds it entirely from American made parts, so there is very little left to swap out.
