MasterPiece Arms announced a new rifle called the MPAR 6.8.  The gun is chambered in 6.8 SPC and uses a short-stroke pistol system.  The gun does not need a buffer tube, so the company outfitted the gun with a six-position stock that can also fold to the side.

The guns will be available in a variety of finishes including a black phosphate, ATACS camo and hydrodipped Vista Camo.

A 16″ barrel with a 1:11″ twist is standard.  The handguard will have a Picatinny rail on top and bottom, with the option of adding side rails.

The rifles should be available for purchase by April 2014.

Details:

• chambered in 6.8 SPC
