Christensen Arms CA5FIVE6 FFT

Caliber: 5.56 NATO
NOT FOR EXPORT

The Christensen Arms CA5FIVE6 FFT is a lightweight, precision-built AR-platform rifle featuring a forged carbon fiber handguard and a 16.25” match-grade barrel. Designed for serious shooters who demand performance without the weight, it delivers reliability, accuracy, and rugged style in one sleek package.

Description

The Christensen Arms CA5FIVE6 FFT isn’t trying to be flashy—it just is. Built for shooters who want performance without the baggage, this rifle sheds ounces without compromising strength, balance, or reliability. At just around 6 pounds, it’s the kind of lightweight that makes you question why you’d carry anything else, especially if you’re putting miles behind your boots.

Let’s talk handguards. The FFT (Flash Forged Technology) carbon fiber isn’t some marketing gimmick—it’s the real deal. Rugged, stiff, and unapologetically light. The forged carbon fiber handguard not only looks like something out of a sci-fi weapons lab, it eats recoil and heat like a champ. You get the full-length Picatinny rail up top for whatever optic or iron you want to throw on, and M-LOK slots down the sides to keep your accessories right where you want them.

The CA5FIVE6 doesn’t skimp on the barrel either. You’re looking at a 16.25” match-grade barrel chambered in 5.56 NATO, tucked neatly under that carbon handguard. With a tunable gas block and a sleek three-prong flash hider up front, this thing runs clean, flat, and soft. Whether you’re shooting groups at the range or ringing steel from a hilltop, it’s going to hold zero and keep pace.

Christensen didn’t just build this from a parts bin—they thought it through. The lower is mil-spec but smooth, with excellent fit and finish. The MFT minimalist stock and grip keep weight down and ergonomics up. Controls are crisp, everything feels tight, and the balance is, well, dead-on. Even the shipping box has a touch of pride with manuals, decals, lube, earplugs, and a Magpul PMAG waiting to greet you.

This isn’t your dad’s AR. The CA5FIVE6 FFT is a modern sporting rifle built for folks who care about weight, recoil management, and precision—all wrapped in a carbon fiber frame that actually delivers. It’s not cheap, but neither is quality. If you want a rifle that’s as light in the hand as it is heavy on performance, this is the one.
