Nice.
I'd like to shoot one.
And yes, it appears to be a Harris BP.

Am I alone in think it's kinda funny that 4-17 Infantry Battalion is testing an HK417?

Looks like even HK decided that Keymod was dead. Apparently they took a cue from Bill Geissele as well. That rail looks like something Geissele would have done. Dogbone nut, twin bolts into a barrel nut design. It's basically a large frame MK8 from the looks of it. First HK AR type I've seen with a rail that looks modern.

Very curious about feedback on that suppressor. I was all but set in getting one until a guy at Silencer Shop talked me out of it. Have to admit, the design looks pretty good and the Army seems to like it.

The change from the HK negative-space mounting system to M-LOK was at the request of the Army.

FWIW, H&K never used actual KeyMod, HKey was their own propreitary mounting system, like AI's KeySlot.
As noted, it is a Geissele handguard. However, the barrel nut design is still H&K; like the original HK416 SMR, it uses the factory barrel nut.
Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

Looks pretty awesome.
