Overview
Built as a pistol caliber carbine, this model is aimed at shooters who want a compact, adaptable platform for range work and general carbine use. The adjustable stock lets the length be set between 38.75 inches collapsed and 42 inches extended, while the 16.65-inch threaded barrel supports standard muzzle devices and suppressor use. It also includes ambidextrous charging handles, an AR15 grip, a Magpul stock, and a 15-inch free float handguard with M-LOK slots for mounting accessories. At 8.6 pounds without a magazine, it has a substantial feel, and the included 30-round stick magazine adds to its ready-to-run setup.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The 8.6-pound weight without a magazine may be noticeable for hunters or shooters prioritizing a lighter carry setup, especially over longer periods.
- Its 16.65-inch barrel and adjustable stock make it more compact than many full-length carbines, but the overall size still changes from 38.75 inches collapsed to 42 inches extended, so fit and handling will vary by position.
- The .578x28 threaded barrel supports standard muzzle devices and suppressor use, but those accessories are not included in the provided specifications and would need to be selected separately.
- The included 30-round stick magazine is useful for range use, but the platform’s magazine compatibility should be considered if you plan to use stick or drum magazines beyond the one provided.
