R5 RGP

R5 RGP (Remington Gas Piston) is a carbine that was designed and manufactured by Remington Arms. It is an AR-15 type rifle which uses a unique mid-length gas piston operating system in an attempt to improve the reliability of the weapon, and featured a monolithic upper, as the upper receiver and handguard were machined as a single piece. Produced in 2011, the Remington R5 RGP also featured a unique handguard that included "Q-serts" which held screw holes that allowed Picatinny sections to be screwed into and directly interface with the handguard.
