DESCRIPTION
The SIG Sauer SIG516 G3 Mohawk 5.56 NATO 16" Semi-Automatic Rifle combines a short-stroke gas piston operating system with modern AR-style ergonomics and durable construction. Designed for demanding shooting applications, the SIG516 G3 features a 16-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel, adjustable gas system, and free-floating M-LOK handguard. Its piston-driven design helps reduce heat and carbon buildup in the action compared to traditional direct impingement systems.

The rifle features SIG's Matchlite DUO curved trigger, a Magpul DT telescoping stock, and a 1:7 barrel twist rate.
