Attached are two photos taken from the Benelli 3-Gun Team video. Here, Julie Golob is seen shooting an AR-15 type rifle. Can anyone identify the rifle and the stock--who makes it and what model are they? She is a S&W M&P15 shooter and she is reported to use a Noveske upper. However, I don't think this particular AR is either 1) a Benelli, or 2) a S&W M&P15. As ideas, fellas? Thanks in advance.

It looks like the ar that red jacket built for benelli with the flash hider to support the auto mode. Just a thought.

The Stock is a Vltor (a rifle length Modstock), so is the upper receiver (a MUR-1A), I can't tell exactly who's free float tube design that is, but I am 90% sure that is a Miculek compensator. If that name is familiar, it is because he is one of the fastest shooters out there. and if you didn't notice, that is probably a 40 round magazine. Her rifle probably started life as a bare S & W lower, If she is sponsored by them you can bet their name is on the rifle. Her rifle is about as much an M & P 15 as Dale Earnhardt Jr's car is a Chevrolet.
