The polymer receiver keeps the rifle relatively light, while the metal KeyMod handguard offers space for practical additions such as a torch or foregrip. The adjustable stock and folding sights also make it easy to tailor the rifle to your loadout without needing to replace the main furniture straight away.

For players looking to develop their rifle over time, the Version 2 gearbox platform offers a well-established base for compatible maintenance and upgrade parts. As with any AEG, correct battery selection, regular cleaning and sensible maintenance will help keep it operating as intended.
