Bluetooth round counter. Digital shot camera. Active stabilization. Recoil powered generator to charge the batteries.

To remove the bolt, you have to remove the receiver extension and slide the bolt out from the rear of the gun.

Spuhr already showcased a design like this, but still aluminum.

Let's do the same thing for the AR-15. The only rule is that it must be DI (let's not just post a picture of the G-11 Caseless and be done)

I'll start

1. Safe/Single/2 round burst/Full auto.
2. Adjustable trigger weight
3.Strike Industries PDW Stock
4. Hydraulic Buffer
5. A2 BUIS
6. Flip up tritium front sight.? Suggestions?
7 Gemtech Adjustable Bolt System https://www.gemtech.com/gemtech-5-56...t-carrier.html
8. CAA flip up pistol grip
9. Ambi Saftey (most complicated unit)
10 Magpul BAD B.A.D. Lever

- Battery Assist Device – AR15/M4

Let's make this thing a mess!

I love how you included the A2 BUIS as the most complicated sight system lol, it really is. Since this is a BUIS, I'm assuming this is a chopped carry handle or a LMT tactical adjustible rear.

Solar and wind powered weapon light with non-weapon (festive) light.
Redundancy is essential; snap on and detachable parts where possible.
Reboot button desirable.
HEATED SLING.
Warranty info engraved on parts wherever possible.
