The Youth configuration centers on a 12.5 inch length of pull, with a hardwood pistol-grip stock featuring a straight comb and a ventilated rubber recoil pad. The walnut-stained finish matches the hardwood forend, which is retained by a single screw at the tip.
This break-action single-shot uses an exposed hammer and a transfer bar safety. Chambered in .243 Win with a 1-round capacity, it delivers a dependable, straightforward operating system appropriate for a compact hunting or training setup.
The 22 inch barrel is finished with a plain crown and has no iron sights. A barrel-mounted, cross-slotted Weaver-style rail is installed for mounting a scope base compatible with Weaver-style rings.
