So I stopped by the Spartan Imports booth while hanging out at Shot Show 2012, however, I apparently missed the big showing of the new Magpul PTS Masada GBBR kit. So I was a bit bummed about that, but there's only so much one can do. As I understand it, it's basically a drop-in kit for the existing Masada AEGs, so nothing much different from an aesthetics point of view. Just know that they're going to be releasing that GBB kit sometime this year.

Trying to make the most of the situation, I decided to snap a few shots of what they didn't have available for display from Magpul PTS. Some items were new, some not-so new. Either way, they got their photo taken by me.

This one is new-ish, although debuted prior to Shot Show 2012. This is the Magpul PTS Masada AKM. If you couldn't tell from the photo, it utilizes an AK-style mid cap magazine rather than the standard M4 PMAG. It also comes standard with a CQB-length outer barrel, which is shorter than its M4-based counterpart.

Speaking of said counterpart, here it is, 14.5" outer barrel, M4 PMAG & all.

Here's a Magpul PTS Masada with the Picatinny Rail System front-end kit installed. I am a fan of this kit.

Ah yes, the new guy. Apparently, Magpul PTS is going to be releasing a DMR conversion kit for the PTS Masada. It will come with pretty much an all-new upper assembly with longer, DMR-length outer barrel & front hand guard.

I'm guessing the shorty magazine comes as part of the kit, but I forgot to confirm that.

Lastly, the Masada DMR conversion kit will feature a fully adjustable PRS-style stock.
