Compact 6.5 Grendel Configuration

The 10.5 inch barrel length provides a balance of velocity retention and overall system length in 6.5 Grendel. The pistol gas system is matched to this barrel length for reliable cycling. The phosphate finish offers corrosion resistance and surface hardness.

Freefloat M-Lok Handguard

The 10 inch handguard uses M-Lok attachment points along its length for modular accessory placement. The freefloat design isolates the barrel from handguard contact. The 6061-T6 aluminum construction maintains a lightweight profile while providing structural integrity.

Upper Receiver with M4 Feed Ramps

The 7075-T6 forged aluminum upper receiver features an anodized finish for corrosion resistance. The M4 feed ramps provide enhanced feeding reliability. The upper is compatible with mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers and standard fire control groups.

Micro Low Profile Gas Block

The micro low profile gas block sits under the handguard for a clean profile. The stainless pistol length gas tube connects the gas block to the upper receiver. The pistol gas system provides reliable cycling for the 10.5 inch barrel length.
