The Gen 1 configuration features the original polymer tri-rail handguard with removable cover panels and a full-length Picatinny top rail that bridges the receiver and gas cover. Integrated iron sights include a protected front post on the gas block and a rear aperture on the top rail for a clean, durable sighting setup.
The 8-inch barrel is cold hammer forged and chrome lined CrMoV steel with a 1:7 RH twist, designed for 5.56 NATO performance and longevity. The threaded muzzle is fitted with an A2-style birdcage flash hider.
Its long-stroke gas piston with rotating bolt delivers a smooth operating cycle, anchored by a milled steel receiver and polymer frame. Ambidextrous safety levers support streamlined manipulation.
The factory side-folding stabilizing brace uses a hook-and-loop forearm strap for secure support. STANAG magazine compatibility and a 30+1 capacity make this pistol an easy fit with standard 5.56 NATO magazines.
