  • Barrel with chrome channel and the chamber. On the muzzle there is a thread for installing a replacement of the contractions. Nozzles are placed inside of the barrel and not extend it.
  • The piston gas engine is connected to the slide frame hard massive rod. The shutter closes the bore oscillating wedge (patent George. Browning), will the cutout in the shank of the trunk.
  • The recoil spring is wound on the tube store, so a possible upgrade of the stock and changing it to pistol grip.
  • When shooting last bullet frame shutter stops in the rearward position. For the removal of the delay there is a button located on the right side of the receiver, above the hopper of the store. Among the elements of the control arms includes a lever forced feeding of a cartridge from the magazine to the bunker. It is located between the trigger guard and hopper. When the button is pushed back to the butt, a cartridge is fed to the Elevator. This locks the platoon trigger of a striker when moving the bolt back.
  • The receiver is of aluminum alloy, window release liners is on the right.
  • Trigger mechanism with two degrees of protection: button mechanical safety device that blocks the trigger, and disconnector drummer in the cylinder stopper, which prevents a shot when not fully latched the barrel.
