The GHK HK416 A5 GBBR

(Delta Force Operators Running the HK416 During Training Exercises.)

The United States Army's Delta Force, at the request of R&D NCO Larry Vickers, collaborated with Heckler & Koch to develop a new carbine in the 1990s for use in close quarters combat (CQC), as the current standard weapon for close quarters environments were typically submachine guns that were chambered in 9mm which was considered "too weak" and that the M4 carbine was considered too large with its 14.5 inch barrel. And so, ultimately, they came up with the HK416 platform.

The base HK416 platform is an assault rifle chambered for the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge and is designed and manufactured by the German company Heckler & Koch. Although the design is based on the AR-15 platform (specifically the COLT M4 carbine platform, which is the standard issue rifle of the U.S. Military), it uses a proprietary short-stroke gas piston system from the Heckler & Koch G36 family of rifles. The HK416 A5 is a new and improved variant with ambidextrous controls that was first seen in the individual Carbine competition. It features a stock that is similar to that of the G28 designated marksman rifle, except slimmer and non-cheek weld adjustable. The rifle also features an improved tool-less adjustable gas regulator for suppressor usage and can accommodate barrel lengths down to 10.5" inches without modifications, as well as a redesigned lower receiver with fully ambidextrous controls, optimized magazine and ammunition compatibility, and a nifty repair kit that is housed inside the pistol grip.

GHK has taken it upon themselves to recreate a legendary rifle platform in all its glory in Airsoft form with this high-quality 1:1 replica. The GHK HK416 A5 GBB Airsoft rifle is fully licensed by H&K, featuring a full set of CNC steel fire control group assembly for exceptional durability and reliability, a CNC steel one-piece outer barrel for rock-solid stability and zero wobble, a patented quick-adjust Hop Up system specifically designed for this 416 platform, and a new HK-Style green gas-powered nylon polymer 30-round magazine. GHK has also stated that all previous GHK AR series green gas magazines and CO2 magazines are fully compatible with this gun, which is great if you already own another GHK GBB AR rifle, but that's not all! The GHK HK416 GBB Airsoft rifle comes equipped with H&K's latest G95K series M-LOK quick-detach handguard and is topped off with a durable CERAKOTE receiver finish with fully licensed H&K laser and roll marks.

The GHK HK416A5 GBB Airsoft rifle series will be available as both a Standard Version, which is equipped with a durable zinc-alloy bolt carrier, and a Premium Version, which is equipped with a heavy-duty CNC steel bolt carrier assembly.
