SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Born out of our experience – for practical use

Practical, tried and tested and at the same time designed to last: Only the best materials are taken, worked-on and built into the RS 8/9. The Haenel designers have used simple and reliable solutions.

01: SHOULDER STOCK: Made out of hight strength alloy and synthetic components with hand rest and ground spike.

02: CHEEK REST: tool-free adjustable in height and side-wise with tools for right or left-handed shooters.

03: PISTOLGRIP: ergonomic Pistolgrip glass fibre reinforced. Adaption for different grips.

04: FOLDABLE BUTTSTOCK: is an option.

05: TRIGGER: individually adjustable.

06: BOLT HANDLE: Ergonomic handle direct above the trigger and a opening angle of 60 degrees for a fast repeating.

07: MAGAZINE CATCH: ambidextrous lever for right and left handed shooters.

08: MAGAZINE: with 10 rounds.

09: HANDGUARD: high tensile glass fibre synthetic hand guard with a flad underside for a good rest of the rifle and ergonomic grip even when it´s cold.

10: FLUSH CUP: three flush cup for carrying sling on each side. 

11: BI-POD MOUNT: compatible with Parker-Hale or the Harris Bi-Pod on the front side of the system. 

12: BARREL: Cold hammer-forged freefloated barrels.Hexagonal key (SW26) for an easy disassembling and as­sem­­­bling of the screwed barrel. Of all methods, this produces the strongest barrels with unmatched con­­sistency. The RS 8 barrels have exact bore and rifling dimensions and a carefully tuned ex­te­rior contour. Threated barrel to mount different accecoires.

13: SAFETY: 3-position safety, direct locking the firing pin.

14: SYSTEM: receiver and barrel are made out of steal and screwed – similar material minimize the material extension at variations in temperature and save the accuracy. The system has a sustainable corrosion-resistant threatment for different parts. 

15: CHASSIS: solid alloy-part with integrated prismatic bedding for the upper-receiver (block) for the bench shooting performance. Surface is hardanodized. Underside with Picatinny rail and optional rails on the left and right side.

16: RECEIVER: steel receiver with thick cladding and integrated Picatinny-rail (milled into the receiver). Uncompromized corrosion and abrasion resistance for smooth feeding.

17: BOLT: roated bolt head with 6 lugs (tested up to 8.000 bar gas pressure). Optical and physical cocking indicator.
