The DPMS DP-15 Kitty Kat is a purpose-built AR pistol that delivers serious performance in a compact package. At its core is a chrome-moly vanadium steel barrel chambered in .300 Blackout featuring a 1:7 twist rate, M4 barrel extension, and a pistol-length gas system for smooth cycling. The nitrided barrel is finished with a 4-inch knurled tube free-float handguard, an R-marked front sight gas block, and an A2 flash hider to keep things tight and effective.
The upper is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum in the classic C7 configuration, machined to military specifications and hard coat anodized for durability. It comes equipped with a forward assist, dust cover, and A1 rear sight aperture for dependable functionality and retro appeal. Inside, the bolt carrier group is built around a shot-peened Carpenter 158 steel bolt, paired with a hardened gas key staked to USGI specs and mounted on a chrome-lined, phosphate-coated 8620 M16-profile carrier.
The lower is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum that is finished with a hard coat anodizing to match the upper. A mil-spec buffer tube with six adjustment positions holds a DPMS CAR-style blade pistol brace for added control and comfort. The build is completed with a DPMS Classic A2 grip and a standard Mil-Spec AR-15 fire control group. Designed to be compact without compromise, the Kitty Kat is ideal for tight quarters, home defense, or range sessions that demand speed, precision, and reliability.
