Product Overview
Meridian Defense Trench-102 with FRT
The Trench-102 is MDC's battlefield-inspired take on the Russian AK-102 platform, built with 100% US-made parts. Part of the exclusive MDC-AK10x series, it replaces traditional wood with lightweight polymer and adds a side rail scope mount for optic flexibility.
Every firearm is assembled, inspected, and test-fired by Meridian before leaving the shop, ensuring the quality and reliability expected from a Meridian Defense rifle.
TRIGGER
This rifle ships with a forced reset trigger (FRT) installed by Copperhead USA. Every FRT-equipped rifle is test fired for function before shipping, so it arrives with rounds through the barrel and light carbon in the action. This is a new firearm - the rounds fired are solely part of the trigger function check, not prior use.
