Barrel, Muzzle, and Rail System

Nitride Barrel Finish & Gas System

The nitride barrel finish increases corrosion resistance and extends service life under repeated use. Coupled with the direct gas operation, the system is designed for reliable extraction and ejection across a range of common 5.56 ammunition types. The 5.56 chambering balances controllability, ammunition availability, and effective range for defensive and general-purpose applications.

Rail, M-LOK, and Accessories

A 15″ full-length rail with M-LOK compatibility provides a large footprint for optics, lights, and handstop placement while keeping weight manageable. The included mil-spec bird cage muzzle and overall battleworn NIB finish give a low-glare profile suitable for operational use.

Supplied with two 30-round magazines, the package is ready for immediate range work or training. Pricing is set at $2,100.99, reflecting the combination of take-down convenience and mil-spec hardware in a semi-auto platform offered in various models.
