More than just a precision game-getter, the trimmed down and ruggedized Long Ranger Express is equally capable at hunting your property as it is defending it. For an all-purpose rifle, practical accuracy, mobility, and ammunition availability should be prioritized over outright firepower. The Express features a quick-handling carbine length 16.5" barrel, threaded 5/824 to accept the muzzle device of your choosing. You may opt for a muzzle brake to reduce felt recoil and keep the Express flat on target in the field, or a suppressor to reduce your signature and keep peace with the neighbors. The most obvious aesthetic departure from the standard H014 is the Long Ranger Express' weather-resistant birch laminate furniture set, which provides excellent moisture resistance, durability, and stability when the temperatures and humidity are anything but. Integral sling swivels sit fore and aft, and a solid black rubber recoil pad aids in recoil control and follow up shot speed, where this lever action excels. Atop the black-anodized aerospace-grade aluminum receiver sits a factory mounted Picatinny rail, ready to accept the high-speed red dot, versatile low-power variable optic, or precise fixed magnification scope of your choice.
