Since that picture was taken, I did receive my MK46 semi from MGA - and I have even built a second gun, the only closed bolt semi auto SAW-K. The SAW-K is a form-1'd SBR now as well.
I have been busy doing a bunch of work on the SAW, including designing/prototyping/and patenting a 300 BLK conversion barrel with a really trick secondary gas system that allows subs to work correctly. That was in partnership with US MGA.
Anyway - I am currently working on adapting an RPD feed tray and top cover to the SAW - which if successful, will unlock 7.62x39/6.5G/9x39 - and any other cartridge that will fit on that belt. I am working with Green Mountain barrels and PTG and tooling up so I can make 9x39 ammo/dies/barrels, plan on using the 300BLK tech to make that round also run in the SAW.
I already have a barrel and bolt made for 6.5G - soon as I get the RPD parts adapted, I can test it!
Stay tuned.....
It's good to see there's finally someone who has both the means and motivation.
Hey, by chance have you checked MGA 6.8 links compatibility with the 6.5 case?
