The MHR platform includes a custom machined receiver and black Nitride Finish Skeletonized Bolt Handle with FFT Carbon Fiber Bolt Knob. A Custom TriggerTech Trigger provides a clean break and adjustable length of pull. The entire unit sits in a 7075 aluminum billet chassis system. An FFT Carbon Fiber Forearm with M-LOK attachment, QD slots and Picatinny mounts provide extreme utility.

The 416R Stainless Steel Aero-grade Carbon Fiber Wrapped Barrel comes fitted with a removable Stainless Steel Side Baffle Brake. The barrel includes 5/2×24 threads for suppressor attachment.
