Historical profile

Publicly unveiled in 2024 by Gestamen Defense as a next-generation DMR/LMG platform for the Hungarian army and NATO markets.

It combines a hybrid bullpup architecture with a free-floating heavy barrel, full-length Picatinny rails and drum feeding for squad fire support.

Adjustable cheek-rest stock, integral bipod and dedicated ACOG optic enable precise engagements beyond 600 meters.
