MFR56, which is the original design of System Defense, can be produced in 2 different systems as Open Bolt and Closed Bolt due to the preferences of country-based law enforcement agencies. The MFR56 top feed system, which is designed as a double feed system, has 4 different patents belonging to System Defense.
