VKTR V31100916606CAD FRGD 5.56 NATO 13.7" Carbine

The VKTR V31100916606CAD Forged 556 13.7" SolNx rifle represents a precision-engineered platform built on VKTR Industries' patented low-profile piston system. This is a purpose-built 5.56 NATO carbine featuring a short-stroke piston design that delivers consistent performance whether suppressed or unsuppressed, across varying ammunition types and operating conditions.

The rifle's 13.7-inch barrel in 5.56 NATO delivers velocity and handling characteristics optimized for close-quarters and medium-range engagement. The proprietary cup-and-spigot gas seal design improves system efficiency while the staged gas bleed mechanism maintains reliable cycling whether running factory ammunition suppressed or unsuppressed. The fully-supported one-piece operating rod and removable gas block provide straightforward maintenance and serviceability. The SolNx finish offers enhanced corrosion resistance, critical for operational environments where exposure to moisture, salt air, or harsh conditions demands reliable surface protection.

This platform serves law enforcement tactical teams, military operators, and serious civilians seeking a short-stroke piston alternative to direct impingement systems. The 13.7-inch carbine length balances maneuverability with ballistic performance, making it suitable for vehicle operations, building clearance, and transitional spaces. The ability to function reliably with suppressed and unsuppressed fire makes this rifle adaptable to varied mission profiles without requiring gas system tuning or adjustments between configurations. At 12.82 lbs, the rifle provides substantial material and mechanical durability without excess weight burden during extended operations.
