i think the secondary magazine release is probably dual purpose for the prone soldier mag dumping or sniping 200 yards and the silence factor of clicks and drag simultaneous action with the same hand. the closeness to the floor when prone can sometimes knock the mag back in. i think it helps to pull on the mag against the floor to slightly raise the rifle then slip another mag in. the angle of the button press should be more down than lateral i would assume but i havent shot
what do you mean by military rifle? Are you also referring to a bullpup of some kind? Or are you referring to something like an m4? which I can guarantee you will have a field strip that is nothing like this specific bullpup rifle
@@shalebrown1616 Well from what I know military rifles often need to be easy to disassemble and/or field strip to make maintenance easy and I have heard that this might not be the case with civilian rifles the thing is that I have seen video's of people disassembling bullpup rifles that were made for military usage like that of the HS Produkt VHS and the Tavor and both rifles look easier to disassemble than the MDRX (at least from what I see) so that makes me curious to know if perhaps the MDRX might be poorly suited for military usage and I have heard that most rifles made for civilian usage would be poorly suited for military usage and some reasons for that could be that some civilian rifles might be more difficult to disassemble (admittedly I'm not an expert on gun design but I do want to do research which tends to be surprisingly difficult)
it should. Desert tech sells a less expensive version that has a normal side eject, it's really just a matter of swapping the caps on either side of the back of the gun, at least that's how mine works. I could be mistaken though, perhaps with the forward eject configuration some other aspects of the guns design may be different.
@@shalebrown1616 I appreciate the reply. The side eject isn't the deal breaker. I messed around with a couple of these in the 308 version. These are 10 MOA guns. That kind of accuracy is just unacceptable.
going with the banana mag is an interesting taste in design but I'd assume for industrial protections it makes sense. a reverse banana would've been more bold but the AK is a fuck you to the american side i guess.
Great overview!
Love my MDRX! 😁
Thank you so much for this!! Just bought an mdrx and this is so beneficial for the visual learner!
Thanks for the breakdown & reassembly

I'm curious to know if this process is sufficiently easy for a military rifle

Does it run without that foward ejection mechanism?

@touofthehighplains My 5.56 mdrx gets 1.8moa with 77g. Not sure how the hell you got 10moa
