• 4143 steel receiver for a lifetime of bullet proof operation.
• Bolt hole honed to 16 RMS for smooth operation.
• Modified M16 style extractor cannot pull out because of hard extraction.
• Bolt locks into the receiver using a breeching ring, which is trapped
between the barrel and the receiver.
• Breeching ring is made from precipitation hardend corrosion resistant steel.
• Full length Aluminum M 1913 Mil Spec. 20 MOA Rail (Picatinny) held on with 4 #8-40 screws and 2 recoil pins.
• Firing pin disassembles from bolt without tools. </div></div>
