It has a larger pre-chamber.
This helps with power and consistency, especially if you are using a Reg.

Integral Picatinny rail

Ambidextrous bolt design....So it can be setup for left or right side bolt placement

Credit goes to Chip Smith it was his creation I just added the ambitious bit and made it happen in the UK as the import/export regs from the USA made it impossible for Chip. HSBC bank in the UK did the rest and that loan will be finished next February 2023.
Lessons have been learned regarding production ect just need to get my cash flow in order to move on with the project. Having my garage premises in Bradford burned down on the 1st of February this year hasn't helped.
Got quite a few smooth twists off Ben to play with when I get time.
I hope he would regard this as a sort of MK3.
