You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Obviously you have put a lot of thought into this. I need to ask, is the problem with the design an actual problem or a perceived problem. In otherwords, theoretically the uncontrolled chambering of the round could lead to stoppages, but does it? The possiblity of feeding problems is one thing, but have we seen reports of wide-scale failures to operate the firearm?
Currently, other than general ergonomic whinging, the only real issues I have heard about is the magazine well being too tight for non-gi mags, and the feed ramp.

I had one from the first batch for a very short time and shot around a 100 rounds thru it, and the feeding problem was present. the ammo would not feed properly into the chamber and would cause the gun to jam. the projectile recessed into the casing of the ammo. this appened 3 times in 100 rounds I think. the rest of the time. the feeding was not always smooth, but was still feeding.
I was using LAR 10 rounds mags though
Why not use factory mags?
Listen, and understand. That Liberal is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse- only fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until your guns are gone.
Grey LAR-15 10 round mags, I have five, four of the five had feed issues, once - the first time I used them. I worked the springs on them pretty hard after by cycling them with a piece of dowel and now they haven't fed wrong yet couple hundred rounds each. Using all chinese surplus. When it happened for me, it's awesome, the bullet is pushed back into the shell, and the lip is bent. All of them. Maybe they were stiff, don't know. They are OK now.
Gen3 Pmags, no issues, have three, no issues at all.
Factory mag, no issues whatsoever.
How can one be assured they get a new batch rifle? Dealers will still pass on gouge guns no doubt. Serial number range?

I would like to hear something official from the NS as to what (if anything) is different from Batch 2.
I can understand that they might want to keep tight lipped so they don't jepordize any Batch 1 rifle sales still in the pipeline. However, it would be nice to know if any "issues" from the first batch have been corrected with the second.
