The item is a Tactical M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle (IAR) accessory, designed for minifigures.
Tactical M27 IAR with Vertical Grip & Scope (Desert Tan & Black) This is a high-quality two-tone molded weapon accessory. It features a Desert Tan (Flat Dark Earth) body—covering the stock, receiver, rail system, and vertical grip—contrasting with Black details for the magazine, barrel, scope, and stock buttpad. Key design features include a longer quad-rail handguard compared to standard carbines, a heavy barrel profile, an integrated vertical foregrip for stability, and a top-mounted optical sight (resembling the Trijicon ACOG/SDO used by the USMC).
Background: The M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle is a lightweight, magazine-fed 5.56mm weapon used primarily by the United States Marine Corps (USMC). Based on the HK416 platform, it was adopted to replace the belt-fed M249 SAW in many infantry squads, prioritizing accuracy and mobility over sheer volume of fire. This specific accessory, with its tan finish and foregrip, perfectly replicates the standard issue configuration for a modern Marine Automatic Rifleman. In a LEGO diorama, this is the essential weapon for a heavy support trooper or a modern USMC squad.
