It is fully adjustable including lateral adjustment for the butt-pad and the cheek rest. The MDT ESS chassis comes with its own butt-stock, similar to our Skeleton Rifle Stock. This allows us to place the pistol grip in optimum relation to the trigger, while still allowing the shooter to choose from the wide variety of AR pattern pistol grips which suit their preference. The most significant change is the incorporation of the ESS chassis specific buttstock interface, rather than the traditional AR pattern interface. Thumb shelves have been added to both sides of the chassis for shooters who prefer an open grip. The wide fore-grip area combined with the octagonal profiled forend tube offers flexible options when shooting over bags or improvised rests. The recoil lug mortise has been designed to accommodate most aftermarket recoil lugs, and the trigger area will accommodate most aftermarket triggers.Ī serrated barricade stop has been added to the front of the magazine well, and a polymer forend grip at the balance point adds comfort. The tab style magazine release has been replaced with a semi-flush ambidextrous paddle that can easily be activated by a weak or strong hand. The magazine well has been refined for easy insertion of the magazine, while reducing rattle and movement. The ESS retains our proven V-block bedding system to form a solid and reliable base for the rifle action. The ESS Chassis System includes chassis, buttstock, 15" forend and MDT Pistol Grip. The MDT ESS chassis is designed with its own buttstock for perfect ergonomics and comes with the MDT Pistol Grip (but is compatible with most AR15 style grips), and allows for customization with a wide variety of accessories. The ESS provides ultimate ergonomics and features!
