Cloak Industries MFR 56 FAQ
What is the Cloak MFR56?
A belt-fed upper receiver for the AR-15, built by System Defence in Turkey and sold in the US by Cloak Industries. It runs a short-stroke gas piston, a two-position adjustable gas block and a 16 inch quick-change barrel in 5.56 NATO. The upper alone weighs about 7.6 pounds.
Does it need a belt, or will it run magazines?
Either one. The MFR 56 is dual feed, so it takes linked 5.56 from a belt container or a standard AR-15 magazine. Belts for the long string, a mag when you only brought a mag. Shop AR magazines or rifle ammo.
Will it fit my AR-15 lower?
It is built for a standard AR-15 lower, with some fitting. Cloak pairs the upper with extended controls and a buffer and spring matched to it. Read Cloak's install instructions before the first range trip. Need the lower too? See AR-15 lowers.
Is a belt-fed upper full auto?
No. The upper has no trigger group, so the lower decides how it fires. On a semi-auto lower it fires one round per trigger pull, like any other AR-15. State and local rules vary, so know yours before you buy.
