The '''DRD Tactical Paratus''' is a take down battle rifle originally developed for the Clandestine Break-Down Rifle (CSR) request made by the Joint & Special Operations Program (JSOP). The original 12" and 16" barrel models (Paratus-SBR-12 and Paratus-16 respectively) were designed to be taken down and clandestinely transported in small cases or backpacks and assembled in less than a minute. More recently other variants have been released with longer rail systems (Paratus-16-LR) and barrels (Paratus-18-DMR) which are not as concealable, but still maintain the same take down ability. Originally the rifle was produced with a tan "NiBore" finish on the receiver but recent models are available with a more conventional black anodised finish.
