“For those who like to close one eye at the shooting range and focus on a target hundreds of meters away, we have great news! The semi-automatic MSBS Grot .308 S20 is officially making its debut on the civilian market. This rifle is designed for long-range shooting enthusiasts who value precision, reliability, and quality. Every shot with this rifle is a test of skill, patience, and perfect timing. MSBS Grot .308 S20 – military solutions in a civilian version and technology that enables impressive performance at long distances,” reads the website of the Radom-based manufacturer.

  • Price: 17 770 zł gross
Description (PL)

A modern rifle for civilian users, manufactured in accordance with the quality standards applied to military-grade products. The Grot is a semi-automatic, centerfire rifle with a single-action (SA) trigger mechanism, allowing only single-shot fire.

The Grot .308 S20 is equipped with a mounting rail integrated with the rifle’s upper receiver, built to the STANAG 4694 (Picatinny) standard, allowing the installation of various types of sighting devices (both mechanical and optoelectronic). The rifle features a handguard compatible with the M-LOK system, enabling the attachment of different accessories.

The rifle is equipped with:

  • fluted 20-inch barrel,
  • modular M-LOK handguard with detachable Picatinny rails, allowing for the installation of additional accessories,
