The 18.25-inch barrel is threaded M22x0.75 RH and arrives with a slotted Flashhider choke installed. The shotgun is chambered to run both 2 3/4-inch and 3-inch 12 gauge shells per factory specification, providing flexibility across common load types.
Factory-style features include a stamped steel receiver, AK-style iron sights (front post and rear notch), and a right-side charging handle with a manual safety. The polymer tri-rail handguard provides accessory mounting options, and the receiver carries an AK-pattern left-side optics rail. An optic rail mount is included.
This example is customized with a Fostech USA polymer pistol grip, a Fostech rubber buttpad, and a DLG-marked 6-position collapsible stock body with sling swivel sockets.
