The twist rate is 1:24 and the thread pitch is 5/8x32, which matches the included KAK .458 compensator. A black crush washer, a micro low-profile steel gas block at 0.750 diameter, and a mid-length stainless steel gas tube cover the front end gas configuration on this mid-length platform.

Billet Upper Receiver and Handguard

The billet aluminum upper receiver features an enlarged .458 ejection port sized for the .450 Bushmaster cartridge, an ejection port door assembly, and a forward assist compatible configuration. The 15-inch freefloat M-LOK handguard features an ultra-lightweight minimalist profile, a partial-length Picatinny top rail, and M-LOK accessory mounting slots along the body. No anti-rotation tabs are present on this handguard. These two components define the exterior structure of the upper assembly on this .450 Bushmaster platform.
