Howa Superlight Cerakoted Midnight Black Barrelled Action

When navigating challenging mountain terrain or dense wilderness, every gramme counts. The Howa Superlight Barrelled Action is the perfect starting point for building a custom, featherweight mountain rifle that does not sacrifice performance or reliability. Designed to bridge the gap between Howa's popular Mini Action and their standard Short Action, the Superlight platform strips away all unnecessary bulk to deliver an incredibly light, agile, and accurate foundation.

At the heart of the Superlight is a newly engineered, scaled-down machined receiver paired with a forged, fluted bolt. To maximise weight reduction without compromising safety or strength, the bolt knob is hollowed out, and the action features a reliable M-16 style extractor and plunger ejector for flawless cycling. The firing pin can be removed entirely without tools in the field, making maintenance completely hassle-free.

This specific barrelled action is fitted with a slender, cold hammer-forged barrel and is finished entirely in a highly durable Midnight Black Cerakote. This premium ceramic coating provides exceptional corrosion and abrasion resistance, ensuring your rifle is fully protected from harsh, wet alpine environments. The muzzle comes factory-threaded (1/2x28 TPI) and is instantly ready to accept your preferred lightweight suppressor or muzzle brake.

• Scaled-Down Superlite Action: A unique action footprint that is significantly lighter and slimmer than a standard short action, specifically engineered for ultralight mountain builds.
• Premium Cerakote Finish: The entire barrelled action is coated in Midnight Black Cerakote, providing superior protection against rust, scratches, and harsh weather conditions.
• M-16 Style Extractor: Ensures incredibly reliable, positive extraction and ejection of spent cartridges, even in freezing or dirty conditions.
• Tool-Less Firing Pin Removal: The bolt assembly allows for instant, tool-free field stripping, making cleaning and maintenance incredibly easy.
• Suppressor Ready: The exceptionally lightweight barrel features a 1/2x28 thread pitch and includes a thread protector, ready for immediate silencer integration.
• Integral Safety Features: The forged bolt features integral pressure vent holes to safely deflect gases away from the shooter in the rare event of a case rupture.

Please note that this is a barrelled action only. It requires a compatible Howa Superlite stock, such as the Stocky's Carbon Fibre Superlite stock, and appropriate bottom metal and magazine to complete your rifle build.
