IWI US has formally introduced the launch of the ARAD 5 for the American market, produced on the firm’s expanded home operations in Andersonville, TN.
The ARAD 5 was developed in direct response to a request from Israel’s Tier 1 army and regulation enforcement models. After in depth service on the worldwide stage, the rifle is now being introduced stateside.
The Rifle
The ARAD 5 is constructed round a semi-monolithic higher receiver that includes IWI’s patented CamLok barrel lock-up mechanism, which secures a free-floated barrel meeting and a two-position short-stroke piston fuel system. The rifle is designed for each suppressed and unsuppressed use. The higher mates to an ordinary decrease, conserving fireplace controls precisely the place any M4-pattern rifle consumer would count on them.
“The IWI US ARAD 5 isn’t simply one other M4-style rifle—it’s one more instance of our dedication to those that demand extra from their gear,” stated Jeremy Gresham, Vice President of Gross sales and Advertising at IWI US.
