The Build Story
The one rifle to own first
If you buy a single defensive carbine, this is the one we’d point you to. 5.56 is proven, available, and easy to run; the 16.5” mid-length gas system is soft-shooting and forgiving; and the EOTech holographic sight gives you both-eyes-open speed up close and surgical precision behind the G33 magnifier when the distance opens up.
Everything, dialed in as a unit
The EOTech, the magnifier, the WARCOMP, and the Scout light all ship installed, aligned, and zeroed. We co-witness the sight, set the magnifier flip geometry to your dominant side on request, and confirm the whole system holds zero through a live-fire shakedown. You’re not assembling a kit. You’re picking up a finished weapon.
Boutique build quality, no shortcuts
Hand-assembled, properly torqued, staked where it matters, and headspaced and proofed before it ever ships. This is what built-to-standard means to us: a rifle we’d stake our own names on, because we already have.
