The CDX-SS SEVEN S.T.A.R.S. Covert is a compact rifle. The rifle achieves target engagement concealability for short/medium distances. The rifle combines an ultra-short threaded, fluted Bartlein barrel with a Covert Slim Titanium suppressor small enough to fit within the chassis M-LOK fore-end tube. This fore-end tube is shorter than on other Cadex rifles while still maintaining a fully functional Picatinny rail for optics and night vision device mounting. It features the folding buttstock of the Strike PRO chassis which allows for fast tool-free stock adjustments.
