The MRAD has been in development with input and feedback from  military and law enforcement users for the past year and is now  available to the commercial market.<\/p>\n<p>MRAD  is a much-anticipated addition to the Barrett line and has caught the  attention of discerning clients who appreciate this rifle\u2019s ultimate  accuracy and operational enhancements. Modularity is exemplified in the  MRAD rifle\u2019s user-changeable barrel system that can be removed by simply  unscrewing two bolts using a standard Torx wrench. This unique design  paves the way for future caliber interchangeability and serviceability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>Adaptable to any user, the MRAD has a length-of-pull that can be  set to five different positions with the push of a single button and a  consistent rifle-to-user interface is achieved with an adjustable cheek  piece. Any possible combination of day or night optics can be  accommodated with the 27.5-inch, 30 moa optic rail, and the match-grade  trigger module is drop-fire-proof, adjustable and easily accessed for  maintenance. Both thumb-operated safety and ambidextrous magazine  release can be used intuitively while retaining a firing grip and cheek  weld.<\/p>\n<p>Enhancing  portability, the MRAD rifle\u2019s stock folds in, yet locks out solidly to  create a rigid platform for consistent firing. MRAD follows in the  tradition of the Barrett M107\u00ae, where durability and ruggedness meet  precision and accuracy. At only 14.8 pounds, MRAD offers a portable  marksmanship solution capable of out to 2,000 yards.
