MDT LSS GEN3 Chassis System

MDT is launching the new LSS GEN3 Chassis System, a completely modular chassis system that allows customization from the handguard to the buttstock. The MDT LSS Gen 3 consists of a core chassis or center base that mates to the action but allows the end user to quickly customize their handguard and butt stock to match their mission, whether it is competition, hunting, tactical applications or general shooting. The LSS Gen3 also has the unique ability to change the handguard and buttstock without affecting the rifle zero.

The center body base of the LSS Gen3 Chassis System has different buttstock adaptor options for XTN, carbine, pistol brace, and fixed buttstocks and is designed to accept AR-style grips. The LSS Gen3 comes with MDT’s Ambi Mag Latch but is also compatible with the MDT Adjustable Mag Latch. The chassis system will initially be available for Remington 700 short Action, savage short action, and Tikka short action rifles, and will be available in either black or FDE.

End-users will purchase the center body base and then select the stock interface and then purchase the handguard that is best-suited their application. Handguard options include a competition fore-end, hunting fore-end, and tactical fore-end.
