Description
The Radian Weapons A-DAC 15 is a purpose-built foundation for serious AR builds. Machined from billet 7075-T6 aluminum with a durable Radian Brown Cerakote finish, this semi-complete lower gives you a strong, premium platform that stands out for its thoughtful design and precision tolerances.
What Makes the A-DAC 15 Different
The standout feature here is the patented A-DAC (Ambidextrous Dual Action Catch) system. Instead of reaching for the bolt release with a second hand or awkward finger movement, right-handed users can lock the bolt to the rear while maintaining their grip on the trigger area. Pull the charging handle back, press the right-side magazine release button, then release the handle. It sounds simple because it is, but once you've used it you'll understand why builders seek this receiver out. The SART spring-loaded plunger also works to minimize upper and lower receiver wobble, which matters when you're trying to dial in precision.
Fully Ambidextrous Controls
The lower comes equipped with a Talon Ambidextrous Safety Selector, left-side magazine release paddle, and right-side bolt release. Every control is designed to work equally well from either side, so left-handed users get the same thoughtful ergonomics as right-handed ones. The Talon safety itself features the tool-less detent spring system and switchable 45/90 throw, giving you flexibility on how you want to manipulate it.
Built for Customization
This is a stripped lower ready for finishing. It includes an integral trigger guard, flared magazine well, and enhanced takedown pins. All proprietary Radian hardware comes installed, so you're getting a receiver that's ready to accept your choice of trigger group and stock. Whether you're building a competition setup, training rifle, or something in between, the A-DAC 15 gives you a solid platform to work from.
Machined with the precision Radian is known for, this lower pairs exceptionally well with Radian uppers, though it'll work with any AR-compatible upper receiver.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the A-DAC system and how do I use it?
The A-DAC (Ambidextrous Dual Action Catch) is a patented feature that lets right-handed users lock the bolt to the rear without removing their hand from fire control. Simply pull the charging handle back, press the right-side magazine release button, then release the charging handle and it stays locked. For left-handers, the right-side bolt release paddle works the same way.
Is this a complete lower receiver or do I need more parts?
This is a stripped lower receiver, meaning it doesn't include a trigger group, buffer tube, or stock. You'll need to purchase those components separately to complete the lower. All the proprietary Radian hardware and controls come installed.
Can I use this lower with a non-Radian upper receiver?
Yes, the A-DAC 15 will work with any standard AR-platform upper receiver. While Radian uppers pair exceptionally well with Radian lowers for tight tolerances and fit, you have complete flexibility to use whatever upper you choose for your build.
What's the SART system and does it make a difference?
The SART (Self-Adjusting Receiver Tensioner) is a spring-loaded plunger that reduces wobble between the upper and lower receiver. It creates a tighter fit without you having to do anything, which helps with accuracy and makes the rifle feel more solid during operation.
Can I switch between left-handed and right-handed operation?
The Talon safety selector and all the release controls are fully ambidextrous, so you can manipulate them from either side. The receiver is designed so both left and right-handed users get the same level of ergonomic control without compromise.
Why is the Radian Brown Cerakote worth choosing over other finishes?
Cerakote is a ceramic-based coating that's extremely durable and offers better protection against wear and corrosion than standard anodizing. Radian Brown is their proprietary color that looks great and pairs well with most furniture and components, but it's really about the quality of the coating protecting your investment long-term.
