The 20-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged and rifled with a 1:30 twist rate, optimized for bullet weights commonly used in both calibers. Sights consist of a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear and a brass bead front post, providing a clear sight picture under varied lighting. The stock and forend are Brazilian hardwood with an oil finish, and the overall length measures 37.5 inches with an unloaded weight of approximately 5.8 pounds.
