Durable Construction with Lightweight Ergonomics

The SA-J83 is part of the J-Series™ CORE™ Gen.2 line, which uses nylon fiber-reinforced polymer for the body—offering an ideal balance of strength and weight. Critical components such as the barrel, gas block, dummy bolt, and sights are crafted from a zinc and aluminum alloy, while the top cover, selector lever, and trigger guard are made from steel.
