The CMMG Dissent BR4 delivers straight-pull bolt action reliability in a modern sporting rifle platform designed specifically for California compliance. This innovative rifle combines traditional bolt-action precision with AR-15 ergonomics and modularity.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional AR-15 platforms, the Dissent BR4 uses CMMG's proprietary straight-pull bolt system that eliminates gas operation entirely. This design reduces fouling, simplifies maintenance, and ensures consistent performance across various ammunition weights. The system delivers faster follow-up shots than traditional bolt-actions while maintaining California legal compliance without compromise.
Key Features
- Straight-pull bolt action system for reliable cycling without gas operation
- 16.1-inch barrel chambered in 223 Remington/5.56 NATO
- Black Armor Cerakote finish on aluminum receiver for corrosion resistance
- Magpul SGA stock provides adjustable length of pull and cheek height
- Zeroed drop-in single-stage trigger for consistent 4.5-6 lb pull weight
- Standard AR-15 magazine compatibility with 10-round capacity
- Picatinny rail system for optics and accessory mounting
The straight-pull operation excels in precision shooting applications where follow-up speed matters. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent bolt throw and minimal receiver movement during cycling. The rifle maintains sub-MOA accuracy potential while offering faster target engagement than traditional bolt-actions. Weather-sealed construction ensures reliable function in adverse conditions.
