The action is gas-operated and semi-automatic with a rotating bolt. It uses the M1’s clip-loaded internal magazine, accepts 8-round en-bloc clips, and automatically ejects the clip after the last shot. The carbon steel barrel is the standard 24-inch configuration, chambered in .30-06 Springfield.
Sighting equipment includes an adjustable rear aperture with windage and elevation drums and a wing-protected front post. The rear sight is observed without a locking bar. The rifle retains standard GI sling and stacking swivels, and the gas cylinder, lock, and lock screw are present.
