The 16 inch heavy/target-profile barrel is cut from 416R stainless steel and finished with a recessed crown. This combination is designed to enhance barrel rigidity and protect the crown, supporting consistent performance with standard .22 LR loads. The 1:16 twist aligns with common .22 LR bullet weights.
The action is a semi-automatic blowback system with a right-side bolt handle for straightforward manual operation. Controls include an extended magazine release, a cross-bolt safety, and a BCA-marked trigger shoe, providing familiar, accessible handling features.
The rifle wears a synthetic composite stock in a marbled light gray/cream swirl. The stock features sling-swivel studs, a straight comb, and a textured fore-end for a secure hold. A rubber buttpad molded with "MCG01" is fitted at the rear.
The alloy receiver is finished in matte black and marked with Bear Creek Arsenal, Sanford NC, along with the model and caliber. No factory sights are installed. A scope mounting rail is present on the receiver, and the platform is compatible with Ruger 10/22-pattern detachable magazines. Final fit and finish present a stainless-and-matte-black two-tone appearance, and the rifle is manufactured in the USA.
