The barrel is rifled in a six groove, 1:10" right hand twist pattern,[1] and features a two-port muzzle brake threaded on and indexed by a jam nut.

[1] This separate bolt head design allows for simple caliber changes, as well as future pre-headspaced barrel and bolt-head sets.

[1] The lower receiver is forged from 7075 aluminum,[2] can mount any type of AR-15/M-16 pistol grip, and features an ambidextrous magazine latch just forward of the integral trigger guard.

The trigger assembly can be removed from the receiver as a single unit, and features adjustment screws for weight (2 to 4 lbs.)
