Black Rain SSP 300BLK Midnight Bronze Overview
Black Rain Ordnance builds its rifles in Neosho, Missouri, and offers dozens of configurations and finishes across its rifle lines. The Spec+ Series is its value line, with over 100 build configurations and 27 finishes on forged receivers, plus upgrades like a nickel boron bolt carrier group and a 3.5 pound trigger.
Receiver and Controls
The forged Spec 15 receiver set is machined from aluminum forgings, the same method used for mil-spec AR-15s, and the charge handle has an oversized tactical latch that is easy to grab with gloves or with an optic mounted. The flat top upper has a full length Picatinny rail.
Barrel and Gas System
The 16 inch 4150V chromoly barrel runs a direct impingement gas system with a .750 low profile non adjustable gas block. Black Rain uses a nickel boron coated bolt carrier group in this rifle, which runs cleaner and is easier to wipe down than a plain phosphate carrier. The muzzle wears a castle flash suppressor, and a free float handguard keeps pressure off the barrel for better accuracy.
Handguard and Furniture
The 15 inch slim M-LOK free float handguard gives you M-LOK slots for a light, sling mount, bipod or grip. Furniture is a Magpul MOE grip and Magpul MOE SL stock. Black Rain notes that a Magpul MBUS Pro offset front sight may need modification to fit its slim handguards, so plan your backup sights accordingly.
Trigger
Black Rain fits a 3.5 pound drop in trigger, which breaks much lighter and cleaner than a standard mil-spec trigger. That helps with precise shots at distance, but take time to get used to it before using it for defense.
The 300 Blackout
The 300 Blackout fires a 30 caliber bullet from a standard AR-15 bolt and magazine. Supersonic loads hit harder than 5.56 inside 200 yards, which makes it a popular choice for hogs and deer where legal, and subsonic loads are very quiet with a suppressor. Never load 300 Blackout into a 5.56 rifle; the rounds can chamber and cause a dangerous failure.
Uses
The Black Rain SSP 300BLK Midnight Bronze fits hog and deer hunting where 300 Blackout is legal, suppressed shooting and home defense. Add a red dot or a low power variable optic to the flat top upper and a weapon light on the M-LOK rail and it is ready for the range or the house.
Finish and Care
Midnight Bronze is a dark bronze Cerakote that resists corrosion, scratches and solvents better than paint. Clean the bolt carrier group and chamber every few hundred rounds, keep the BCG lightly oiled, and wipe the finish after handling.
