Key specifications and tactical features

Built as a Bolt Action in the DISSENT lineup from Cmmg, the DISSENT BR4 pairs a 16.1″ barrel chambered for .223 Rem/5.56 NATO with a Black Armor Cerakote aluminum receiver for corrosion resistance and low signature. The rifle ships CA-compliant with a 10+1 capacity and includes (2) Magpul 10 Round PMAGs, giving you immediate, legal-ready feeding. The Magpul SGA stock provides a comfortable cheek weld and adjustable length for a variety of shooters.

Trigger and accuracy

The zeroed drop-in single stage trigger is a standout for this class of carbine — plug-and-play installation with a clean break improves consistency and lets shooters focus on fundamentals. The 16.1″ barrel is a practical compromise: it preserves velocity for effective range while keeping the package maneuverable for positional shooting.

Why choose .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO in this platform

.223/5.56 offers low recoil, flat trajectories out to typical target and varmint ranges, and broad ammo availability. On a precision-oriented bolt-action chassis like the DISSENT BR4, that translates to easy follow-up shots, manageable recoil for new shooters, and cost-effective practice sessions.

Accessories and ergonomics matter: the aluminum receiver runs lightweight without sacrificing rigidity, and the Cerakote finish stands up to field use. For optics, the receiver geometry accepts standard mounts and the stock layout keeps your eye-to-scope relationship consistent.
