Wow, that thing totally needs a scope on it lol! :lol: Any idea on specs and pricing or is it early days yet? Over 9,000 dollars. JSR, Re: AR-15 pneumatic valve. A prototype has been built. They are evaluating the flow of the valve. I suspect they will need to go to a much higher flowing design sin...

Poland, sales of misc parts and guns has been pretty brisk. Mike has had a couple of machines pretty busy making parts. There is some development, but progress is slow. Stay tuned.

The valve / cartridge assembly in question here must have gone through 5 or 6 iterations before it was thought it might be presentable. Cost rears its ugly head again.
