The Sporter is built on a stamped steel receiver finished in black Melonite for corrosion resistance. An integral AK side-mount optic rail is factory-riveted, so adding glass is straightforward without gunsmithing.
The 16" nitrided barrel features a 1:7 twist to stabilize a wide range of 5.56 and .223 bullet weights. Its 14x1 LH threads accept standard AK muzzle devices or suppressor adapters.
Laminated wood handguards and fixed stock retain the classic AK look while providing strength and resistance to warping. The steel buttplate adds durability, and the 12.75" length of pull fits a broad range of shooters.
A bolt-hold-open notch on the safety selector aids quick reloads, and the long-stroke gas-piston action maintains AK reliability. The proprietary Polish 5.56 magazine well geometry ensures secure feeding with the included polymer magazines.
