- Nikko Stirling Diamond LR 4-16×50 scope (30 mm tube, green/red illuminated SFP reticle, target turrets)

The American Flag Cerakote finish is exclusive to this limited run, giving the barreled action a patriotic look that is both durable and corrosion-resistant. The heavy 24" 4140 steel barrel is cold hammer forged for uniform rifling and threaded 5/8-24 for the included muzzle brake or other devices.
Built on the proven Howa 1500 action, the rifle features a 3-position safety, M16-style extractor/ejector, and tool-less bolt shroud removal for quick maintenance. The factory H.A.C.T. two-stage trigger breaks at roughly 2 lb and is user-adjustable for a tailored pull.
An aluminum free-float M-LOK handguard with star cut-outs keeps accessories secure while preventing contact with the barrel. At the rear, a Luth-AR MBA-4 stock offers an adjustable comb and a 3.25" length-of-pull range, complemented by an MDT vertical pistol grip for stable control.
The included Nikko Stirling Diamond LR 4-16×50 scope mounts to a 20-MOA canted Picatinny rail, providing ample elevation for extended-distance shooting. Illuminated green or red reticle options and target turrets make dialing adjustments straightforward. With three 10-round magazines on hand, the rifle is range-ready out of the box.
