Barrett REC10
The Barrett REC10 (designation stands for "reliability-enhanced carbine") is an American selective-fire, semi-automatic rifle chambered in .308 Winchester or 6.5mm Creedmoor, manufactured by Barrett Firearms. The REC10 utilises a direct Direct impingement gas operating system, and is intended to be used as a semi-automatic marksman rifle[1][2]. Most variants of the REC10 have a twist rate of 1:10[3] and a standard magazine capacity of 20 rounds.[4][2][5]

History
The REC10 made its public debut at SHOT Show 2019[8][9]. Since then, it has reportedly seen use within Israel Defense Forces units, potentially as a replacement for the SR-25 [10][11], though official adoption has not been publicly confirmed.
Design
The Barrett REC10's upper and lower receivers are machined from a billet of 7075-T6 aluminum. It features an M-LOK handguard, TB-41 DLC coated bolt carrier group and a chrome-lined chamber. The REC10 comes with an ALG QMS trigger and a Magpul stock, Magpul pistol grip, and Magpul flip-up sights. It also features fully ambidextrous controls.[12][13]
