Above the grip, there is an adjustable ambidextrous M-LOK thumb rest. The adjustable magwell is taller with a larger barricade stop front wall. The ambidextrous magazine release latch is also adjustable. The chassis comes with pre-cut tapes that can be attached to the area above the trigger guard to work as reference points for the trigger finger.The 19″ M-LOK forend of the MDT ACC Elite chassis features an integrated bottom full-length ARCA rail, QD sling sockets, is drilled and tapped for adding MDT night vision hoods, and comes with custom cut grip tapes that can be added to the bottom to provide better purchase on barricades or bags. The forend can also be used to adjust the balance of the rifle by adding weights to it. At that time, the chassis was only available for Remington 700 short actions, but that’s expanded since. In 2025, Eric tested one of these chassis with the Bergera B14-R .22 platform. You can see his findings here.
