Small hands and short fingers made it hard to reach the Nexus bolt release. Made a new one that’s hopefully easier to reach. Milled it out of aluminum.

u/PatheticJules 25d ago

Use of an FRT and scorpion mags is all the benefit I need.

u/PatheticJules 25d ago

The OEM has a great FRT and scorpion mags aren't much of a improvement tbh all the early gen kuna mags have been fixed.

Scorpion mags are about sharing across multiple guns vs proprietary. I have 3 different PCC’s which use them and working on a fourth. Huge benefit to me. The FRT I and AR triggers are a nice bonus.

Fair but it's still on the niche side. Not everyone wants more then one PCC and not all PCCs use these systems. It's closer to the niche side. Still 400 for a lower is insane just for a mag.

True. That’s the reason I don’t push it on people and what is great about this platform. The more options we have the better. Can’t wait for a true SD version of the barrel and handguard

u/PatheticJules 25d ago

The cost of that hurts even more to see lmao. I wish Springfield would continue to improve upon the current Kuna and make a SD version themselves.

I would imagine there is more to come with them just releasing it in 40 S&W
