The GDP-556 pairs an 8-inch 5.56 NATO barrel with a direct-impingement, semi-automatic action for compact handling. The factory carton label shows Model GDP-556, Type PISTOL, Barrel Length 8", Caliber 5.56MM, and Serial Number GDP556-20290.
The upper receiver is forged-style and includes a forward assist, shell deflector, and ejection-port cover. A free-float aluminum M-LOK handguard runs a full-length 1913 top rail with T-marks and integrated QD sling sockets for sling placement and accessory spacing.
Controls are set up for versatility: an ambidextrous safety, a right-side ambidextrous magazine release with a raised G marking, and an extended, textured bolt catch. The ambidextrous charging handle uses skeletonized latches for positive purchase.
A threaded muzzle hosts a multi-port muzzle device installed at the factory. The pistol wears a PDW-style dual-rod arm brace with a textile strap and a Geissele-branded polymer pistol grip. The matte black finish is consistent across the receivers and handguard. Made in the United States.
