The Scout Squad configuration delivers a compact, well-balanced setup built on the M14 platform, using a semi-automatic, gas-operated, short-stroke piston system with a rotating bolt. The 18 in. carbon steel barrel is marked ".308" near the gas cylinder, and the rifle is chambered for .308 Win with a 10+1 capacity.
Iron sights include a wing-protected front post and an adjustable rear aperture with windage and elevation drums. A forward barrel-mounted Picatinny rail segment provides a mounting surface ahead of the receiver; no receiver-mounted scope base is installed or included.
At the muzzle, a cylindrical multi-ported brake is fitted. The gas system features a gas cylinder with a gas cylinder lock and a slotted gas plug. These details reflect the Scout Squad’s practical, field-ready configuration.
The black composite stock offers molded checkering for grip, a ribbed buttplate with the Springfield Armory crest molded in, and fixed sling loops. The length of pull is 13.5, providing a solid, repeatable shoulder mount.
