The original MMRs were true to the Mossberg roots\u2014solid rifles at attractive price points. They included the MMR Hunter series and MMR Tactical series rifles.

Although basic, each component was carefully considered. The most obvious change is the slim new 13-inch aluminum handguard that wraps around the free-floating, A2-profile barrel. It\u2019s also a good example of the thought process that went into building this gun.<\/p>\n<p>The previous MMR wore a quad rail forend. Picatinny rails are great for mounting accessories, however, when you get a bunch of accessories attached to the handguard, it starts to get bulky. The sharp-edged rails can also be hard on the hands. In 2007 Magpul developed their first slot system to address this. They called it their MOE mounting system and it allowed attaching accessories directly to the handguard without the need for a rail. However, there was a drawback in that you needed to access the back of the handguard to install accessories.<\/p>\n<p>Then in 2012, VLTOR and Noveske teamed up to develop Keymod. With the Keymod system, you could attach your accessories without the need to have access to the back of the handguard. Keymod use has been growing in popularity, but Magpul wasn\u2019t about to leave it at that.<\/p>\n<p>The new Magpul standard is called M-Lok, which stands for Modular Lock system. The slots are a little bigger than the MOE system and it\u2019s no longer necessary to access the back of the handguard. The accessories are held in place by cammed T-nuts. This makes installation of M-Lok parts as easy as the Keymod system with added benefits. Due to the way Keymod functions, you can only install accessories one way. You have to go from the wide end of the slot to the narrow end. M-Lok accessories can be installed either way, giving you added positions for spacing. They also incorporate recoil lugs making the M-Lok mounts more resistant to shifting under recoil.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_64470\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"improved-ar-sub-moa-m-lok-mmr-5-56-full-review\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64470\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64470\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1.jpg\" alt=\"The slim new M-Lok handguard offers lots of locations to attach accessories.\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/002-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-64470\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The slim new M-Lok handguard offers lots of locations to attach accessories.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>Answering The Why<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_64473\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/005Magpul-M-LOK-System-4.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"improved-ar-sub-moa-m-lok-mmr-5-56-full-review\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64473\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-64473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/005Magpul-M-LOK-System-4-400x189.jpg\" alt=\"M-Lok accessories can be mounted facing in either direction and are held fast by a combination of cammed T-Nut and recoil lugs which extend into the slots.\" width=\"400\" height=\"189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/005Magpul-M-LOK-System-4-400x189.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/005Magpul-M-LOK-System-4-150x71.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/005Magpul-M-LOK-System-4.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-64473\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">M-Lok accessories can be mounted facing in either direction and are held fast by a combination of cammed T-Nut and recoil lugs which extend into the slots. <em>Image courtesy of manufacturer<\/em>.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When I asked the folks at Mossberg about their thinking in going with the M-Lok system, this is what they told me:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Magpul\/M-Lok market share is stronger<\/li>\n<li>Direct attachment\u2014Customer does not have to use aluminum rail mounts<\/li>\n<li>Direct mount capability\u2014No access to back side of rail required<\/li>\n<li>Four-axis recoil-mitigation lugs\u2014At every increment, accessories are supported by lugs on all four sides<\/li>\n<li>Adjusts evenly in 1\/2 slot increments for precise accessory placement<\/li>\n<li>Multi-directional Mounting\u2014Accessories can mount with either end facing forward<\/li>\n<li>#10 mounting screw\u2014For greater strength and fewer stripped screw heads<\/li>\n<li>Optimized for both metal and polymer\u2014Easy to manufacture, plus stronger and more secure<\/li>\n<li>Custom, self-aligning T-nut\u2014Strong, inexpensive, and easy to use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So you can see they didn\u2019t just stick it on because it looks good, although it does.

It\u2019s also ramped for more reliable feeding. The gas system is direct impingement for simplicity and reliability, and the barrel is free floated for accuracy. While the earlier MMR had 1:9 rifling, the updated MMR has 1:8 to stabilize the heavier bullets gaining popularity. In the range report you\u2019ll see that this rifle really likes the Hornady 75-grain boat tail hollow points (BTHP).<\/p>\n<p>The trigger has a typical mil-spec weight of 7 pounds, but is free of creep and is not at all gritty. That\u2019s not typical. It provides a nice clean break with the reliability and safety factors afforded by a mil-spec trigger. I prefer a lighter trigger, but there are options available in the aftermarket if a little polishing doesn\u2019t get you where you want to be.<\/p>\n<p>The stock is a UTG Pro six-position adjustable unit that provides the best fit regardless of what you\u2019re wearing, from a summer T-shirt to a winter parka. The Magpul trigger guard is curved to provide more room for gloved fingers.<\/p>\n<p>All-in-all, the build quality is excellent. The upper and lower fit together as well as any mass-produced AR you\u2019ll find. They\u2019ll also interchange with other AR-pattern rifles. The steel surfaces are phosphate coated and the aluminum is anodized. If you\u2019re not familiar with phosphate coating, commonly called Parkerizing (although that is actually a proprietary name which has come into common usage much like Kleenex), it\u2019s a method for providing corrosion resistance that\u2019s been in use by our military for decades. It provides more corrosion protection than bluing and also adds lubricity and anti-spalling properties.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_64479\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/011-crop.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"improved-ar-sub-moa-m-lok-mmr-5-56-full-review\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64479\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64479\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/011-crop.jpg\" alt=\"The MMR is at its heart an improved AR.

It makes the MMR a little easier to maintain and less expensive to produce. Note the enlarged Magpul trigger guard.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>ARs with 16-inch barrels generally utilize carbine length gas tubes or the newer mid-length tubes. The mid-length tubes run at lower pressures at the port which means less stress on internal parts and longer life\/dependability. Mossberg went with the mid-length gas tube.<\/p>\n<p>The included Magpul pistol grip is comfortable and well-positioned for extended shooting. It also doesn\u2019t get sticky or oily in the heat like some rubber grips do. A storage compartment affords a handy place to keep backup batteries for your optic.<\/p>\n<p>The birdcage flash suppressor is typical AR and, with slots only in the top, offers some compensation to offset muzzle rise. The most atypical features are the lack of a forward assist and dust cover. In both cases, I believe it\u2019s a better gun without them. The forward assist is something that most people will never use in a sporting rifle. The dustcover is a maintenance item and is flimsy enough that it could easily be bent. They are both items I would gladly eliminate to get to the price point Mossberg has set for this gun.<\/p>\n<p>MSRP is $910.00. That\u2019s $10 less than the price of the gun it replaces, the old style MMR. You\u2019ll find street prices to be significantly less.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Range Performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The MMR is an easy gun to shoot, as are most ARs. It\u2019s light with modest recoil and the top rail provides a sturdy mount for optics. For accuracy at 100 yards, I fired from a bench resting the gun on a wooden block. The first day at the range I used a Caldwell Lead Sled. The second day when I got to the range, 80 miles from my house, I realized the Lead Sled wasn\u2019t in my truck.\u00a0 Oops. So I fired anyway. I figured you won\u2019t be shooting from a Lead sled when you\u2019re drawing down on that trophy jackalope.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just an average shot, so the figures listed here aren\u2019t a thorough test of each brand of ammo. But it\u2019s obvious that this is a better than 1 MOA gun. My three best groups were 0.935, 0.805 and 0.771 inches. It\u2019s nice to see that Mossberg still delivers.<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_64482\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/014-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"improved-ar-sub-moa-m-lok-mmr-5-56-full-review\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64482\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-64482\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/014-1-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"The ammo was graciously provided by Federal and Hornady.

The ammo used for evaluation ranged in price from less than fifty cents a round for the American Eagle to more than a dollar a round for the Hornady 75-grain load. Sighting-in was accomplished with the American Eagle 50-grain JHP Varmint and Predator ammunition from Federal. That was the lightest load tested. I then ran through the various cartridges increasing bullet weight till I got to the Hornady .223 Rem 75-grain BTHP.<\/p>\n<p>Like most guns, the MMR showed a preference for some loads. My best groups were with the Hornady .223 Rem 55-grain V-Max, the Hornady .223 Rem 75-grain BTHP Match and a .223 handload using a 60-grain Nosler Varmint over 25 grains of Hodgdon Varget. However, all brands grouped into 1\u00bd inch or less, which is excellent. We aren\u2019t just in the golden age of guns today, we\u2019re in the golden age of ammunition too. New shooters will take the consistency we\u2019re seeing from the ammo manufacturers for granted, but if you\u2019ve been around for a while, you know how much better ammo is today.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_64477\" style=\"width: 335px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"improved-ar-sub-moa-m-lok-mmr-5-56-full-review\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64477\" title=\"Mossberg MMR AR-15 New M-Lok &amp; Sub MOA - Full Review\" class=\" wp-image-64477\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"The UTG Pro six-position collapsible stock makes a lot of sense for a general use carbine.\" width=\"325\" height=\"244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/009-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-64477\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The UTG Pro six-position collapsible stock makes a lot of sense for a general use carbine.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As I said earlier, Mossberg has discontinued production of the earlier MMR models although you can still find some for sale. But when that inventory is gone, there won\u2019t be anymore. Which is okay with me since the updated model provides even more value. Did I mention that it\u2019s $10 <u>less<\/u> than the original MMR with iron sights!<\/p>\n<p>Mossberg will continue to introduce more models and calibers of MMR through 2017. In the meantime, if you\u2019re in the market for a solid performing basic AR-15 for hunting, competition or home defense, I highly recommend the new Mossberg MMR. It\u2019s a quality gun at a great price point, and from an American company that\u2019s been around since 1919.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mossberg.com\/\" campaign=\"MossbergMMR\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">https:\/\/www.mossberg.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To purchase on GunsAmerica.com, click this link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?T=MMR\" campaign=\"MossbergMMR\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?T=MMR<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes down to it, the AR is a highly established and popular design.
