Ideal for Training and Multi-Platform Versatility

Additionally, the M-LOK handguard accepts modern accessories for customization. You can configure your rifle exactly how you want it. Finally, the free-float design maintains accuracy whether you’re running a basic setup or a fully kitted platform.
