We believe that defending your country from a foreign or domestic enemy is your right and it is crucial to your national security. We have been researching the needs of military forces around the world and found that most of them relate to updating or replacing their aging service rifles.
It took us 4 years to develop a rifle that will meets those requirements. We are constantly trying to improve the current technologies and develop new ones.
During the design phase we took into consideration the necessity to replace their inventory and the need for modern technology and future upgradability with lower budgets.
We also took into consideration the future operator. We used average soldier biometrics and ergonomics and their need for a lightweight and small reliable rifle regardless of caliber.
Future operation scenarios are very important, so we considered local geographies and the topographies of current conflict scenarios; consequently, we developed a rifle that works flawlessly in sand, water and mud predominant environments. Whether your forces are deployed for "over the beach ", jungle, desert or tundra operations, they can rest assure their rifle will always work properly.
Lastly, we understood the need for training. With our universal platform we guarantee that the training for your forces will be efficient, focused and short.
So when someone asks us why we do this, we simply answer... because we can do it right!
