This year, Palmetto State Armory debuted the newly rechristened Jakl 2.0 from last year, to become the soon-to-be-released AXR. Unlike the Jakl, this rifle utilizes a proprietary lower and an adjustable short-stroke action. But like the Jakl, the body design is inspired by the abandoned Magpull MASADA assault rifle. One hopes this rifle will be less prone to reliability issues than the JAKL.
