    Looks like a no-longer available Mega upper.

    I'm intrigued. Looks like a 12.5" midlength probably coupled with a VLTOR A5 system to increase the reliability issues that may be inherent with that system.

    I know Spike's had a 12.5" midlength that they ran for awhile, but it was only a limited run. You can find these uppers for sale floating around the internet.
    Never had any problems running a 13" mid-length gas system.

    Sounds cool, but you can make anything sound cool.

    The fact that big names are involved/endorsing give me the impression its not just another parts rifle.

    This sounds odd, but I'm more interested in the "heat resistant elastic cords" they put on the handguards for retaining tape switch cables.

    Very interesting! Can you tell us more about your setup, such as the parts used, gas port size, bolt carrier, buffer configuration and the type of ammo you usually use?

    No. The video should make it a little obvious.

    Costa is the one who ran T&E on it for a while from all I saw in the past months. You can actually tell it's true by the fact Chris is the one presenting and Yeager is acting as the intermediary and just giving some thoughts.

    I'm not interested in the system yet, I keep an eye on warsport, though.
    Muzzle punch optional.

    Sure. Got a few short barrel midlength test guns. Custom stainless CHF barrels. Gas ports started as .078" but would only cycle 5.56 (unless suppressed--this could be acceptable for some, depending on philosophy). Opened to .081"/.082" runs strong w/o being overgassed. Sprinco white or blue spring, H or H2 buffer depending on ammo/can config. Colt auto BCG, lowers vary. SureFire goods up front.

    ETA: testing is ongoing full auto/high round count/tracking MRBF, etc. It works, but it takes LOTS of shooting to validate a concept/configuration. And even then, to measure any performance gain over established carbine gas setups is probably a statistic impossibility given numerous variables involved. On the other hand, "feel" is a matter of perception, marketing, and preference. We just like running the tests and numbers--nerds are good that way.

    Got on their website to look at their "signature" lower. Seems to be they are just assembling a lower from various sources. I'm building a complete lower as we speak that is very similar to theirs using a Mega lower for over $300 less.

    Well I don't know if anyone was keeping track of this gun, but it is up on their sight now.

    I think the BREVIS suppressor is interesting.

    I saw it mentioned by someone in the industry before, saying that going from 1.5" to 2" diameter allowed them to make the OAL shorter but keep relatively the same DB reduction.

    I'd like to check out that Brevis at some point. I like the size and the cost. Looks like the first run of rifles were completed and sold already. That's a good thing in my book. Looking forward to hearing and seeing more.
