[SHOT 2025] Mountain Billy Gun Lab GOAT-15

Mountain Billy Gun Lab had the full family of scaled-down AR-style firearms on display at SHOT Show 2025. The GOAT-15 rimfire trainers take the controls and features of an AR and shrink them down to 80% scale for small or young shooters. And new for this year is a pistol arm brace version.

The GOAT-15 takes the familiar AR platform and scales it down for smaller shooters. An unloaded GOAT-15 rifle only weighs 2 pounds 14 ounces. Combined with the collapsible stock it can fit younger shooters as they grow.

Mountain Billy Gun Labs also offers a pistol version. Previously, it shipped with a bare buffer tube or a factory SBR, but that will soon be changing. They had a new arm brace on display and it should be coming soon as an option. MSRP ranges from $469 to $489 for the various models. They also include a one-round magazine for training new shooters.
