This is the SureFire Intermediate Combat Assault Rifle in 6 ARC we previewed before SHOT Show. It was displayed in the Magpul booth at the show to showcase the new PMAG 25 ICAR GEN M3 Window. There are quite a few little changes from the prototype gun I fired in late November.
Development of this firearm has led to quite a few new capabilities which will begin to influence the SureFire line, like this new muzzle device.
SSD, did they make any external geometry changes to the magazine? Would an ICAR magazine fit in a Six8 lower?
Additionally, are they using a standard Grendel type bolt face or an enlarged one?
It will fit in a Six8 lower. If you’re familiar with other SureFire developments like AROC, you’ll understand the operating system.
Did they indicate a commercial release, or is this gov only?
As of right now, gov only.
