    Geissele needs to make something for this....

    Thanks for the review! It's nice to know that even the best can become enamored with new shiny things.

I immediately realizd that I looked at the rifle and not the target the entire reload process.

    You are absolutely correct. However, no matter what you do you will always have an empty magazine in your hand during a reload. That is not going to go well with what most of us are used to.

    Guys with a little more experience on the platform have learned to bump the mag release with their hand, pretty much at the base of the thumb.
