About this product

The IWI Carmel is a modern sporting rifle chambered for .223 Rem/5.56 NATO and built around a short-stroke gas piston operating system. The platform is fully ambidextrous with non-reciprocating charging handle, ambidextrous safety and magazine release, and is designed for field customization via MIL-STD 1913 and M-LOK attachment points. The rifle ships with a 30-round PMAG and features a side-folding polymer stock with adjustable comb for compact transport and adjustable ergonomics. Construction combines steel, aviation-grade aluminum and high-strength polymer for corrosion resistance and durability.
