It highlights the rifle's unique development as a political maneuver to continue intermediate cartridge research. The video details its stamped sheet metal construction with milled steel inserts, a complex vertical locking block mechanism, and a cut-down MG-13 magazine.

The rifle featured a cut-down MG-13 magazine and a complex trigger group designed for safety.
