The SS2 is an upgrade of the Pindad SS1, being a licensed version of the FN FNC. The SS2's flash suppressor is based on that of the Colt M16A2, and it has a reciprocating charging handle that can be used for forward assist, with the front sight being based on the AK rifles.{{cite web|url=http://aseanpower.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/ss-2-the-pride-of-indonesia-army/|title=SS-2, The Pride of Indonesia Army|accessdate=2009-04-13|date=2008-04-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080922122037/http://aseanpower.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/ss-2-the-pride-of-indonesia-army/|archive-date=2008-09-22|url-status=live}}{{cite web|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140516124125/http://articles.janes.com/articles/Janes-Infantry-Weapons/Pindad-SS-series-5-56-mm-assault-rifles-Indonesia.html|url=http://articles.janes.com/articles/Janes-Infantry-Weapons/Pindad-SS-series-5-56-mm-assault-rifles-Indonesia.html|accessdate=2013-01-19|publisher=Jane's|title=Pindad SS series 5.56 mm assault rifles (Indonesia), Rifles|url-status=dead|archivedate=2014-05-16}}

The carrying handle and detachable rear sight on top of the Picatinny rail can be removed in order to install various optics.

The rifle's front handguard is ribbed, with cuts for thermal ventilation. This design improves barrel cooling in situations where sustained fire is necessary. The SS2's barrels were originally produced in Germany before Pindad switched to South Korean-made barrels due to issues with an arms embargo at the time.

The charging handle is on the right side of the SS2 with the fire/safety selector on the left side with provision for single and full auto fire alongside safe mode.{{cite web|url=http://world.guns.ru/assault/as99-e.htm|title=World Guns' Pindad SS2 Page|accessdate=2009-04-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090426081224/http://world.guns.ru/assault/as99-e.htm|archive-date=2009-04-26|url-status=dead}} Upper and lower receivers are made from aluminium alloy and are connected via cross pins.

A semi-automatic only variant of SS2 chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO for dopper training use. Dopper training consists of firing live rounds at the ground around soldiers or law enforcement operators while they crawl in a muddy environment. To avoid the projectile shattering or ricocheting when it impacts the ground, a proprietary round-nosed 7.62×51mm bullet was developed for use with the rifle. The rifle could also use regular 7.62mm bullet for combat use. The rifle weights around 4.6–5 kg, has a barrel length of {{convert|510|mm|abbr=on|1}} and overall length of {{convert|908|mm|abbr=on|1}}.{{cite web|url=https://tniad.mil.id/senjata-dopper-pindad-tingkatkan-keselamatan-prajurit/|title=Senjata Dopper Pindad, Tingkatkan Keselamatan Prajurit|website=tniad.mil.id|date=30 May 2017|access-date=27 January 2024|language=ID}}{{cite web|url=https://www.airspace-review.com/2018/08/30/senjata-baru-hasil-riset-dislitbang-tni-ad-di-pameran-produk-litbang-pertahanan-kemhan/|title=Senjata Baru Hasil Riset Dislitbang TNI AD di Pameran Produk Litbang Pertahanan Kemhan|website=airspace-review.com|date=30 August 2018|access-date=27 January 2024|language=ID}}
