CDX-R7 XS Series — A Rigid, Mission-Ready Precision Rifle for Military & Law Enforcement
Intro
When precision, rigidity, and modular mission adaptability matter, the CDX-R7 XS from Cadex Defence delivers. Designed as the next evolution of Cadex’s long-range platforms, the R7 XS combines a one-piece billet chassis, an extra-long M-LOK fore-end, and purpose-built operator features — giving military and law-enforcement teams a hardened, configurable system suited to prone, tripod and rooftop operations.
Key Features Operators Care About
- One-piece billet lower receiver & fore-end tube — machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum for strength and repeatable rigidity in real-world environments.
- Long 15.5” M-LOK fore-end with 11 side and 9 bottom slots for optics, rails, bipods and NV bridges — ideal for multi-sensor payloads and accessory expansion.
- PRO tool-free adjustable foldable buttstock — quick LOP, cheek and pad adjustment in the field; reverse folding hinge designed to remain tight over time.
- Operator-forward ergonomics — oversized trigger guard and magazine release, Cadex rubberized grip and glove-friendly controls reduce manipulation time in tactical conditions.
- Multiple calibers and barrel options — available in common operational calibers (6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Win, 300 Win Mag, 338 Lapua Mag, etc.) and tuned twist rates to match mission profiles.
Why it fits military & law-enforcement use
- Durability + Repeatable Accuracy: The billet chassis and reinforced fore-end reduce flex and maintain platform harmonics under accessory load — critical for long-range consistent groups in varied deployment conditions.
- Modularity for mission load-outs: The long M-LOK section and optional NVD bridge allow teams to co-align thermal/night devices, prism optics, and ballistic periscopes without fabricating adapters.
- Ease of maintenance and field servicing: Detachable trigger base for adjustment/maintenance keeps zero retention high and simplifies armorer tasks.
- Ergonomics under real conditions: Glove-ready controls, adjustable stock, and accessory rails reduce setup time and improve shooter interface during time-sensitive operations.
Recommended Configurations (For Common LE / MIL Roles)
- Designated Marksman / Patrol Sniper: 6.5 Creedmoor, 26″ barrel, 10-round magazine; PRO stock and 20 MOA rail for long-range optically enhanced engagements.
- Specialized Long-Range Team / SOF: 300 PRC or 338 Lapua Mag, heavy contour barrel, 20 MOA NVD bridge and ARCA tripod adapter for precision anti-materiel/extended range solutions.

Accessories to Consider

Selecting integrated components from the platform vendor helps ensure fit, function and repeatability.
