Regarding the M400 Tread Predator 2, Sig states:

The SIG SAUER M400 TREAD Predator has been specifically built to give Varmint and Predator hunters the features they need and want to be successful in the field.  The custom designed flat bottomed M-lok handguard makes it easy to mount to a bipod or setup on a set of shooting sticks.  The Cerakote Jungle finish provides concealment and protection while the stainless steel 16” barrel delivers maximum accuracy and comes threaded for easy suppressor mounting.  New for 2022 features include the addition of Magpuls PRS Lite Stock, 2-Stage Matchlite Duo Trigger and PRS Style grip.
