	In order to address a WW1-era worry about detachable magazine feed lips being damaged by handling, the feed lips were machined into the receiver: unfortunately the designers were not done yet, and decided the magazine did not need to be detachable. Instead, the box magazine is affixed to the right side of the receiver with a hinge at the front, and swings forward to load from 20-round stripper clips: it can only be detached for maintenance. The magazine also has a viewing window cut into it which inevitably allowed dirt to enter the action. This cumbersome loading method reduced the practical fire rate of the weapon to about 150 rounds per minute under ideal conditions: in non-ideal conditions (for example, war) this could drop to a lower rate of fire than a semi-automatic rifle, especially since the stripper clips were fragile and prone to bending. Spent casings are ejected down and to the left from an ejection port with a manually operated dust cover: forgetting to open this prior to firing would instantly jam the weapon.

General consensus on the weapon was that it was massively overdesigned, giving it an excessively complicated operation and creating great difficulties in manufacturing, with a host of fiddly and unnecessary parts requiring extensive machining and hand-fitting.

			In order to address a WW1-era worry about detachable magazine feed lips being damaged by handling, the feed lips were machined into the receiver: unfortunately the designers were not done yet, and decided the magazine did not need to be detachable. Instead, the box magazine is affixed to the right side of the receiver with a hinge at the front, and swings forward to load from 20-round stripper clips: it can only be detached for maintenance.

Spent casings are ejected down and to the left from an ejection port with a manually operated dust cover: forgetting to open this prior to firing would instantly jam the weapon.

	The weapon fires from a closed bolt which caused heating problems so severe that it was prone to spontaneous heat ignition (cook-off), and uses a short recoil, locked breech operating system (so short that it is often mistaken for being blowback operated) which led to extraction issues that could only solved by incorporating an oiler into the receiver cover: even so, the underpowered and unreliable ammunition lead to constant stoppages, more so if any kind of dust or dirt was present since the oiled cartridges attracted it like a magnet. To make matters worse, the barrel change system was poorly designed and did not securely hold the barrel.
