Saw that a while back, somehow missed any mention of the "reciprocating mass inside the forearm" like an AK-107.

Not too much happening, just posting some things I thought might be interesting.

it does move up & down a good bit if you focus on just the front end in the video.

but then again you arent trying to win an accuracy contest with a goody like this.

Right, It's comparable in weight to a 9mm AR rifle and seems similar recoil wise to a standard 9mm AR. Why add more parts to make it more complex if there is no measureable benefit? I think they'll sell though as a 9mm rifle seems more common than 23-24 years ago when the Marlin Camp Carbine went out of production. Would be funny if Marlin-Ruger brought the camp carbine back as competition.
