All three of these models now feature a new rail system with M-LOK technology, which is installed by locking to the upper receiver using wedge locks and an anti-rotation pin. The installation is completed with two screws to bottom out in the barrel nut groove. Combined, the alignment mechanism offers extreme rigidity and less deflection, ensuring that mounted accessories stay put with no shift in zero.

The DMR II features a 18-inch cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined free floating barrel with a 1:7 twist; a SureFire ProComp muzzle device; an upgraded MIL-SPEC lower with a 3.5-lb. Timney Match Trigger; and a Magpul MOE grip and buttstock. MSRP is $1,999.

The Tactical Carbine II features a 16-inch cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined free floating barrel; a three-prong flash hider on the barrel, a mid-length gas system and H1 buffer to reduce recoil; and a Magpul grip and buttstock. MSRP is $1,599.
