Conflict-Weapons Refurbishment & Modernization
Restoring Proven Platforms for Continued Service
StrikeCore provides inspection, refurbishment, repair, modernization, and sustainment support for military and law-enforcement small-arms platforms recovered from conflict zones, long-term storage, surplus inventories, or demanding operational environments.
Many established weapons systems remain effective but require professional evaluation, replacement components, corrosion remediation, refinishing, and function testing before they can be safely returned to service. StrikeCore helps qualified government, military, law-enforcement, and authorized international partners extend the useful life of these platforms while improving reliability, accountability, ergonomics, and operational readiness.
Refurbishment Capabilities
Our refurbishment programs may include:
Complete condition assessments and inventory reviews
Detailed inspection of major components
Cleaning, corrosion removal, and surface preparation
Replacement of worn, damaged, or unserviceable parts
Repair or replacement of stocks, grips, handguards, and external components
Barrel, bolt, receiver, and operating-system evaluation
Protective coatings and refinishing
Reassembly and function verification
Accuracy, reliability, and safety testing
Serial-number documentation and asset tracking
Packaging, preservation, and return-to-service preparation
All work is scoped according to platform condition, customer requirements, applicable technical standards, parts availability, and regulatory restrictions.
DAS™ Modernization
Where technically appropriate and legally authorized, compatible AR-, M4-, and M16-pattern platforms may be modernized with StrikeCore’s DAS™ Direct Actuation System.
DAS™ is a side-forward, non-reciprocating actuation system designed to improve access and weapon manipulation when the platform is equipped with modern optics, suppressors, lasers, lights, body armor, and other mission equipment.
A DAS™ modernization package may provide:
A forward-positioned, non-reciprocating actuation control
Easier access around optics and mounted equipment
Reduced interference with armor, slings, clothing, and equipment
Improved manipulation without significantly changing firing position
Direct actuation of the bolt-carrier group
Continued compatibility with a traditional rear charging handle, where configured
Retention of familiar AR-platform maintenance, magazines, accessories, and training
This approach allows customers to retain proven platforms and existing inventories while incorporating modern StrikeCore technology and improved operator ergonomics.
All DAS™ upgrades are subject to platform inspection, engineering review, configuration compatibility, customer authorization, and applicable laws and regulations.
Supported Platforms
StrikeCore can evaluate refurbishment and modernization opportunities involving commonly fielded military and law-enforcement platforms, including:
AR-15, M4, and M16-pattern systems
Select battle-rifle platforms
Service pistol
Shotguns
DAS™ modernization is currently intended for compatible AR-, M4-, and M16-pattern platforms. Other weapon systems may be evaluated for refurbishment, sustainment, or separate modernization solutions.
Support may range from individual weapons to larger fleet-level refurbishment programs

Fleet Assessment and Program Planning
For larger inventories, StrikeCore can assist with:
Initial fleet surveys
Weapon categorization by condition
Repair-versus-replacement analysis
Identification of platforms suitable for DAS™ modernization
Parts, tooling, and equipment requirements
Cost-per-unit projections
Production scheduling
Quality-control planning
This allows customers to determine which weapons can be restored, which platforms are candidates for modernization, which should be retained for parts, and which should be removed from service.
Compliance and Controlled Handling
StrikeCore conducts firearms-related work only for properly authorized customers and in accordance with applicable federal, state, local, export-control, import-control, end-use, and sanctions requirements.
International programs may require coordination involving ITAR, EAR, ATF, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Commerce, customs authorities, host-nation approvals, end-user certifications, and other governmental agencies.
StrikeCore does not support unauthorized transfers, prohibited end users, sanctioned entities, or unlawful weapons activity.
Why Refurbish and Modernize?
A structured refurbishment and modernization program can provide significant advantages:
Lower cost than full fleet replacement
Faster return to operational readiness
Continued use of familiar and proven platforms
Reduced retraining requirements
Improved reliability and safety
Improved ergonomics and equipment compatibility
Better inventory accountability
Extended service life of existing assets
Reduced dependence on new-production supply chains
Integration of modern DAS™ technology into compatible legacy platforms
A Practical Path to Readiness
StrikeCore combines small-arms experience, proprietary technology, modern manufacturing relationships, technical evaluation, and program-management capabilities to help customers restore and modernize proven weapons systems for continued lawful service.
Whether the requirement involves a limited number of recovered weapons or a larger government-controlled inventory, our team can help develop a practical refurbishment, DAS™ modernization, and sustainment plan.
