The MR556A1’s closed short-stroke piston system runs cooler and cleaner than direct-impingement designs, reducing maintenance demands and extending parts life. This system is directly derived from the combat-proven HK416.
Its 16.5" cold-hammer-forged, nitrocarburized medium-contour barrel is rated for 20,000+ rounds and finished with 1:7" RH twist for optimal projectile stability. The threaded muzzle allows easy attachment of flash hiders, brakes, or suppressors.
The free-float aluminum M-LOK handguard provides a rigid platform for accessories without affecting barrel harmonics. Integrated QD sling sockets and top Picatinny rail segments add versatility straight from the box.
Forged 7075-T6 upper and lower receivers feature hard-coat anodized matte black finish, selector pictogram markings, and tight fitment for solid lock-up. German CIP 'HK P CC' proof marks verify pressure testing and quality control.
An adjustable six-position polymer stock with rubber butt-pad caters to shooters of different statures, while flip-up iron sights offer immediate, reliable sighting out of the case.
