Key Features
- Precision Engineered Receiver: The receiver is precision machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, subsequently treated with a Type III hard anodized finish. This construction provides a lightweight yet rigid chassis, optimizing structural integrity while mitigating overall system weight.
- Optimized Barrel System: Features a 19.25-inch 4140 chromoly steel barrel, treated with a durable black nitride finish for enhanced corrosion resistance and surface hardness. The barrel is threaded (11/16-24 UNEF) to facilitate the integration of muzzle devices or sound suppressors, maintaining a low profile for specialized use.
- Integrated Optics Platform: A full-length Picatinny rail is directly integrated onto the receiver, providing a secure and versatile mounting surface for a wide array of optical systems, enabling rapid target acquisition and extended-range engagement capability.
- Enhanced Ergonomics and Modularity: The rifle incorporates a robust synthetic polymer stock and forend. The forend features M-LOK® interface slots for the direct attachment of tactical accessories, including lights, lasers, and grip enhancements. The stock provides a consistent cheek weld and textured gripping surfaces for secure handling in adverse conditions. A large-loop lever facilitates positive manipulation, even when wearing gloves.
- Reliable Sight System: Equipped with an XS Ghost Ring rear sight paired with a gold bead front sight, providing rapid and clear aiming capabilities under varying light conditions.
- Operational Consistency: The lever-action mechanism is engineered for smooth, positive cycling, ensuring consistent cartridge feeding and ejection. A cross-bolt safety mechanism is incorporated for operational security.
