It features multiple optics, lasers, lights, and is demonstrated with rapid fire, hip sniping, and Tannerite explosions.

This "ultimate AR-15 meltdown" test pushes a custom build to its limits, revealing key durability insights. The Faxon barrel ultimately burst after 830 rounds, but critical components like the Sharps SRC bolt carrier group and Geissele rail demonstrated impressive resilience under extreme stress and heat.
