The forged 416 stainless receiver and 410 stainless steel barrel wear a uniform Armornite black finish for corrosion resistance and a clean, modern look. Overall length is approximately 33.3–33.4 in and weight is about 6.4–6.5 lb, offering a compact, well-balanced lever-action package.
The 16.3 in barrel is threaded 5/8x24 and includes a thread protector. Chambered in .357 Magnum with an 8-round tubular magazine, it is also compatible with .38 Special. The removable tubular magazine allows unloading without cycling, and the rifle uses side loading and side ejection.
Factory sights include an XS adjustable ghost-ring rear and a HIVIZ H3 fiber-optic front for fast acquisition. An extended MIL-STD-1913 top rail spans the receiver and continues forward over the barrel (about 10.5 in) to provide ample mounting surface. The T6 aluminum M-LOK fore-end offers 15 slots for flexible accessory placement.
Ergonomics are handled by a synthetic black stock with a straight comb, textured grip panels, and a rubber recoil pad, plus a rear sling swivel stud. Operation features include a large-loop lever, external hammer, and a cross-bolt safety. Length of pull measures 13.5 in.
