The HK MR556 A1 75th Anniversary edition combines Heckler & Koch's proven piston-driven system with distinctive Flecktarn camouflage finish to commemorate seven decades of German engineering excellence. This limited production rifle delivers the reliability of military HK416 technology in a civilian-legal configuration.
What Makes This Different
Unlike direct impingement AR-15 platforms, the MR556 A1 uses HK's proprietary short-stroke gas piston system that keeps fouling away from the bolt carrier group. The cold hammer-forged barrel provides consistent accuracy across thousands of rounds while the free-floating M-LOK handguard eliminates point-of-impact shifts from accessory mounting. The distinctive Flecktarn camouflage pattern on the upper receiver creates a unique aesthetic unavailable on standard production models.Key Features
