The CAR816 A2 is a short stroke, push rod gas piston operated rifle chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO. Originally designed for dedicated military use, it has been tested and proven above and beyond the standards set by NATO for military small arms.

Utilizing only the best components and materials, rigorous testing protocols, and a dedication for craftsmanship, Caracal USA can provide, what we believe to be is the most reliable, dependable and durable short stroke piston rifle available today.
