Special Notes:

1. There is a surface mark on the barrel near the muzzle. This does not affect function in any way, only cosmetics.

2. During our testing, we found that the ejector does not complete the final step of ejecting the spent case. All other functions — feeding, firing, and extraction — operate normally. This does not affect the ability to load, fire, or extract, but cases are not currently being fully ejected clear of the action.
