This looks interesting. Seems to have some Merkel DNA in it:

G'Day Fella's,

Yes SharpsNitro, very interesting and you can see the Merkel in it.

Regards
Homer

A couple of videos from the Range Day at SHOT:

It will be interesting to see if they followed through with the details. Kevin's record of following through on the details isn't good with AAC and his stay at SIG. He make a fortune off of Freedom Group though.

Thanks for Sharing Sharps Nitro.

An interesting and different design but I'd reserve the 45* bolt lift, for factory ammo.
From what I could see, the bolt head assembly (and operation), appears to be a copy of, or variation of the AR/SR design

Doh!
