The Raygun is a single shot firearm chambered in 380ACP, hand loaded, and utilizes a locking bolt. More details on the firing system at a later date.

More electronics in the fire controls is exciting, I remember a bullpup design that had a solenoid instead of linking a second trigger.

Thanks for all the hard work moving this space forward. For a long time I have thought about making a lever action that uses a solenoid to facilitate locking and/or bolt movement but I'v never had the time to experiment.
