A truly revolutionary new rifle—the HK SL8-6 is constructed almost entirely of a reinforced carbon-fiber polymer. Based on the current combat-tested German Army G36 rifle, the SL8-6 uses a proven short stroke, piston-actuated gas operating system, well known for simplicity and reliability. Designed and engineered to deliver exceptional shooting performance, the SL8-6 is already a favorite among European rifle shooters, due in large part to the many modular sighting systems available. These modular systems include extended and short Picatinny rail mounts with open sights, a 1.5 power scope with an integral carry handle, and a dual optical system that combines a 3 power scope with an electronic red dot sight. The ergonomic and clean lines of the HK SL8-6 are functional and modern, giving the SL8-6 the look and feel of 21st century firearm.
