LMT Defense R20 RAHE Estonian Reference Rifle – 14.3" P&W 5.56 Piston

Authentic Estonian Defence Force Reference Rifle for Civilians The LMT Defense R20 RAHE (meaning “Hail” in Estonian) Reference Rifle brings the exact platform contracted by the Estonian Defence Force to the U.S. commercial market in semi-automatic form. Built around LMT’s patented Monolithic Rail Platform upper and fully ambidextrous MARS-L lower, this short-stroke piston 5.56 rifle delivers exceptional reliability, modularity, and performance in harsh conditions—perfect for collectors, professionals, home defense, or serious training.

Military-Spec Piston System and Features

• Monolithic M-LOK Upper: One-piece forged aluminum with free-float M-LOK handguard, continuous top rail, and quick-detach barrel system for fast caliber/length swaps.
• 14.3" Chrome-Lined Piston Barrel: 1:7 twist, pinned & welded suppressor-ready flash hider to reach legal 16" overall length.
• Gen 2 Short-Stroke Piston: Cleaner, cooler operation with Gen 2 piston block and bayonet lug.
• Full Ambidextrous MARS-L Lower: Ambi controls, Euro-style two-stage Axle trigger, winter trigger guard, QD end plate, LMT Gen 2 ergonomic grip, and Magpul SL-K stock.
• Includes: One 30-round Magpul magazine, LMT metric flip-up sights, BFG Vickers sling (OD Green), 3 rail panels, and operator’s manual.

The piston-driven system combined with LMT’s monolithic design ensures superior reliability when suppressed, in adverse conditions, or during rapid fire.
