Historical profile
Designed in Poisy (Haute-Savoie) by PGM Précision as a modular marksman rifle: barrel, stock and bipod can be removed in seconds without tools.
Adopted by the Gendarmerie GIGN, the Police Nationale RAID and many European counter-terrorism units, valued for its guaranteed sub-MOA accuracy.
The modular design spawned the Intervention (short barrel), Commando I/II and the related Mini-Hécate II variants.
