Heckler & Koch SL8 Semi-Auto Carbine, G36 Conversion, 18.60" CHF Barrel, 5.56mm

Heckler & Koch SL8/G36 Conversion

Converted in-house using quality components from Tommy Built Tactical, the leader in SL8/G36 conversions and upgrades. We then shortened the factory HK barrel from its original 20" length down to 18.6" in length, and threaded 1/2x28. The factory SL8 CHF barrels shoot exceptionally well out of the box, so we left the orignal contour in-tact to avoid compromosing barrel rigidity and accuracy. The barrel is finished strong with Cerakote from the gas block journal and forward. The original factory HK engravings and markings found behind the gas block journal are preserved and left un-touched to maintain HK authenticity.

A revolutionary rifle design—the HK SL8-5 is constructed almost entirely of a reinforced carbon-fiber polymer. Based on the combat-proven G36 rifle used by the German Army, the SL8-5 uses a proven short stroke, piston-actuated gas operating system, well known for simplicity and reliability. Made using the famous HK cold-hammer forging process, the SL8-5 barrel ensures accuracy and long life. The ergonomic and clean lines of the HK SL8-5 are functional and modern, giving the SL8-5 the look and feel of a 21st century firearm.
