High-Spec Valkyrie Rifles AR-15 Straightpull – Built by Dave Wylde, Fired Only 250 Rounds
Posted by G-TEN on 31st Jul 2025
For those who know their rifles, the name Dave Wylde and Valkyrie Rifles speaks for itself. Precision, reliability, and purpose-driven builds are the standard—and this rifle is no exception.
Built in 2024 and used for just 250 rounds, this AR-15 straightpull rifle was custom assembled for CSR (Civilian Service Rifle) and precision target shooting, using premium-grade components throughout. Based on a robust Anderson Manufacturing lower receiver, the rifle is chambered in .223 Wylde—ideal for those wanting optimal performance with both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO loads, especially the heavier match bullets.
At the heart of the build is a 14.5” stainless steel cut-rifled barrel with a 1:7 twist, delivering outstanding accuracy and consistency. Whether you’re competing or just demand more from your rifle, this is a serious setup.
Upgrades That Matter
This isn’t your average build. A standout feature is the combination of an ASE Borelok muzzle brake and an ASE Utra SL5i Borelok sound moderator—a premium pairing offering both recoil management and suppressor functionality. These are rarely included in standard rifle builds and represent a significant value upgrade.
The rifle also features a Triggertech match-grade trigger, offering an ultra-crisp break that enhances shot control and consistency.
Paired with top-tier furniture, including a Geissele free-float forend, Magpul UBR Gen 2 stock, and Magpul MOE pistol grip, this is a build that leaves nothing to be desired. Even the included magazine is enhanced with a Magpul Ranger Plate for easier handling under pressure.
