LMT MARS-L CQB NZ16 | 5.56 NATO | 16in

The LMT MARS-L CQB NZ16 is a carbine in the AR family configured with a 16-inch barrel and standard 30-round magazine. It is a semi-automatic firearm chambered for .223 REM/5.56 NATO and ships in a black finish with polymer furniture and flip-up front and rear sights. For an optic under $1,000 that pairs well with this configuration, consider a variable 1-6x or 1-8x low-power variable optic such as the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 for close-to-mid-range use.

Common real-world applications include range training and practical competition/practical precision work, where a compact, reliable carbine platform is desirable.
