Match-grade components include a National Match barrel and trigger system that produces consistent 2.5-inch groups at 25 yards. The Armory Kote finish provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard Parkerizing, while tactical features like tritium night sights and an integral accessory rail expand operational capability.
