Steen Defense introduced its long‑requested MCRC (Multicaliber Combat Rifle Compact), a compact 5.56×45mm NATO carbine developed as a reinforcement weapon for users who do not primarily serve in front‑line combat roles. Intended for police and military personnel who need more capability than a service pistol or submachine gun can provide, the MCRC is said to fill a niche few manufacturers address in this caliber and size category - at least within Europe.
POTD: Short & Lightweight 5.56 NATO Carbine Developed for Police
The platform is delivered as a complete, mission‑ready package that includes optics, magazines and a suppressor, with all aftermarket service, maintenance and repairs handled directly by Steen Defense.
Developed, designed and manufactured in Sweden, the MCRC offers a lightweight footprint of 2.6 kg, an adjustable length of 62 to 70.5 cm, and an effective range of roughly 200 meters, providing compact dimensions without sacrificing functional reach.
