Key Features

Barrel and Action

The 5″ black nitride medium taper threaded barrel accepts common muzzle devices and mates to a radial delayed blowback system tuned for 9mm Luger. The 9mm Luger caliber delivers low recoil, affordable ammunition, and proven terminal performance for defensive and range use—ideal for rapid follow-up shots and high-capacity engagement scenarios.

Handguard, Receiver, and Finish

The EML 4″ M-LOK handguards provide attachment points at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock plus an integrated handstop for positive indexing. A coyote tan Cerakote aluminum Picatinny rail receiver offers corrosion resistance and a full-length top rail for optics and back-up sights. The package features CMMG Zeroed parts including pistol grip, drop-in trigger, 60/90° ambi safety, linear compensator, AR-15 ambi charging handle, bolt catch, and polymer dust cover for true out-of-the-box readiness.
