JP Enterprises CTR02/CTI23 .223 Wylde 16 Top Charge Black Gold Rifle

A true legend in the competition AR world, the JP CTR-02(TM) has been a staple on winning stages for over 20 years. Now revitalized for a new generation, this modernized precision platform pairs the iconic CTR-02 billet receiver set with JP's revolutionary CTI-23(TM) upper receiver. Fitted with an integral barrel nut system and Thermo-Fit(TM) installation, the CTI-23 ensures unmatched rigidity between barrel and upper-unlocking repeatable accuracy under match pressure. This build represents a purpose-driven competition carbine with uncompromising attention to detail, elite-grade components, and innovative engineering for fast, flat shooting. Why It Stands Out Engineered for serious 3-Gun, Tactical Games, and competitive marksmen, this small frame build begins with the top-charging CTR-02(TM)/CTI-23(TM) billet receiver set and a 16" Supermatch(TM) barrel chambered in .223. JP's 3-Port Compensator and Short Gold Thermal Dissipator deliver recoil control and heat management without excess bulk. An XL-length Rapid Configuration Hand Guard provides maximum real estate and rigidity, while the Enhanced Bolt Carrier Group and Adjustable Gas Block ensure smooth cycling and tunability. Internally, the GEN 2 Silent Captured Spring (H2) system and Modular Competition Trigger (3.0-3.5 lb) with a gold flat shoe provide silky-smooth control. Every control surface, from the ambidextrous mag release to the JP reversible safety with gold levers, is tuned for speed and ergonomics. This rifle balances speed, precision, and reliability for the shooter who wants top-tier performance from the very first shot.
