Geissele HICAR
Geissele HICAR
The Geissele Hyper-velocity Improved Capability Assault Rifle (HICAR) is the future of small arms technology, optimized to harness the full potential of high pressure 5.56 ammunition.
High pressure ammunition offers serious gains in velocity, but at the cost of additional stress to components and accelerated barrel wear. The Geissele HICAR is a leap in innovation of both design and materials, engineered to thrive where other options crack under pressure. The proprietary BB-62 Reinforced Bolt easily handles the extreme pressures of evolving ammunition technology. The 11.5” Cold Hammer Forged Barrel is crafted from GNB200 Barrel Steel, which Geissele helped develop in cooperation with Carpenter Technology and the U.S. Army. This premium alloy steel is specially formulated for high temperature wear resistance – ideal for high-pressure ammunition applications. Utilizing GZX Gain Twist and Geissele Phased Array ® Tri-Port technology, performance and durability are precisely balanced, maintaining match-grade accuracy while leveraging the increased velocity of high-pressure 5.56.
Geissele Automatics has been at the forefront of weapon development for high pressure ammunition for years, working alongside industry-leading ammo manufacturers. The Geissele HICAR stands as a culmination of this extensive iterative design process. Built to withstand the future demands of ammunition development and provide the shooter with leading-edge performance, the Geissele HICAR sets the standard for the next generation of small arms.

What is Geissele Nanoweapon®?
Geissele Nanoweapon® (also known as Picatinny DSL) is a family of Durable Solid Lubricant coatings which was developed by ARDEC. It is available exclusively from Geissele Automatics. We continued the development of Picatinny DSL so that its level of corrosion, wear and abrasion resistance is currently unmatched among firearm coatings. Nanoweapon® is applied at low temperatures so that the underlying metallurgy of the part is unaffected by the application process. Our coating also has a surface hardness roughly equivalent to synthetic diamond. This makes Geissele Nanoweapon® harder than sand, easily rejecting carbon and making cleaning a breeze, on top of allowing the firearm to operate normally with less lubrication.
