Alignment of the handguard was assisted by lugs intersecting with the receiver.
The takedown pin (shown with supplied disassembly tool) and the hinge pin were each secured by a spring-loaded detent that prevented them from moving, even when partially displaced. The operator had to maintain pressure on the center of the pins at all times to move them. Note the hooded bolt-release catch and the see-through magazine. Flip-up sights are by Troy Industries.
