The MR556A1 offers the battlefield-proven reliability, durability and precision you would expect from a rifle that bears the name Heckler & Koch. Like the HK416, the MR556A1 uses a proprietary HK short-stroke gas piston in place of the direct-gas-impingement system found on lesser AR15-style rifles that propels exhaust gas into the upper receiver to operate the action. In the "closed" HK piston system, exhaust gasses never enter the receiver, which means the HK runs cooler, cleaner and more reliably. When adverse conditions, like dust, sand and mud are introduced, the advantage of the HK system becomes even more drastic. The MR556A1 is assembled in the USA using US and German-made components and uses many of the same parts and assemblies developed for the HK416.
You MUST be 18+ Years old to purchase this item. All firearms MUST ship to a current Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer local to you.
How to purchase:
1). Coordinate with your local FFL to ensure they are willing to accept a transfer. There is often a fee for this. All receiving fees are your responsibility. It is your responsibility to ensure that your local dealer will receive the firearm.
2). You will need to provide the contact information, including an email address, for your local FFL. We will coordinate with your local FFL to verfiy license validity. We will ship the firearm to your local FFL for administrative processing. We will NEVER ship a firearm directly to you.
3). Once the firearm arrives at your local dealer you will be notified that it is ready to begin the transfer. Your local FFL dealer will conduct a background check and/or any other steps to ensure you are eligible to take possession of the firearm in accordance with Federal, State, and local laws. You CAN NOT take possession of the firearm until this step has been conducted.
4). Once your local FFL dealer has completed all of the steps required to legally transfer the firearm to you they will allow you to pick it up.
If you do not provide contact information for a current and valid FFL dealer within 7 days we will cancel the order and refund your purchase price.
If you fail your background check we will arrange shipment back to us and you will be charged a restocking fee.
Your local dealer will only release the firearm to the individual who purchased the firearm. It is a FEDERAL CRIME to purchase a firearm for someone else in an effort to avoid conducting a background check.
