MDT is pleased to announce the release of two new carbon fiber components for hunters running XTN-interface chassis: the HNT Fixed Buttstock and the LSS GEN3 Hunting Forend.
The HNT Fixed Buttstock is the lightest fixed buttstock in the MDT lineup at 13 oz. Built from a foam-filled carbon fiber shell with an aluminum fixed adapter and titanium hardware throughout, it attaches to any MDT XTN-interface chassis, including the LSS GEN3, ACC Elite, and ACC Premier GEN2. LOP adjusts via an included spacer system ranging from 13.35" to 15.25" depending on chassis configuration. Cheekpiece height adjusts up to 0.86".
The foam-filled core damps post-shot vibration and reduces cold transfer compared to aluminum-framed alternatives. Hunters converting a folding HNT26 to a fixed setup can install the HNT Fixed Buttstock directly onto their existing chassis without additional components.
The LSS GEN3 Hunting Forend is a carbon fiber enclosed forend for the LSS GEN3 chassis body. At 5.9 oz, it adds M-LOK attachment on the top, sides, and bottom along a 14.24" forend length. The enclosed design acts as a mirage shield, reducing barrel heat interference with sight picture at distance. The forend installs without removing the barreled action from the chassis.
Together, these components give LSS GEN3 users a direct upgrade path toward a lighter, more capable hunting platform. The HNT Fixed Buttstock targets precision hunters and mountain hunters building or converting toward a dedicated lightweight rig. The LSS GEN3 Hunting Forend is built for hunters who want M-LOK capability and mirage mitigation without switching platforms.
The HNT Fixed Buttstock and LSS GEN3 Hunting Forend are available May 12, 2026 through MDT dealers and at mdttac.com.
