These style of BCG have potential to be a game changer for AR’s. Defo needs more testing before I would buy though. See how that adjustable gas key will work!!
I’d love to get the ADM UIC 180 lower and run something like this when they get the kinks worked out😎.
Absolutely man, I agree 👌
I’m working on maybe getting a second one and if I do then I’ll put that adjustable gas key in it.
Considering the issues I’ve seen with both those product and the aric, I think the product has a long way to go before it’s a practical replacement for the standard buffer system ESPECIALLY for any serious use. I’m also curious as to the long term review of the system. New is novel, and most times we give a pass to novel things when we wouldn’t give that same pass to a standard ar, or after the novelty wears off
Very true and estate points 👌
I can say they my systems have broken in fairway well but are still not quite at that 100% reliability.
@@CalebDowning seeing that it cycles on its own but fails to go into the battery when charged manually makes me think that maybe with the two different set of springs that it has you would need to apply some extra force at the end of the charging handle travel to make sure both of the set of springs get compressed all the way.
@dieyproductions4403 Could be 🤔 That makes sense though. It has definitely broken in and works better now.
@@CalebDowning heartwarming to hear that it is working better now after being broken in, this is an amazing innovation and I really root for it to succeed, hope they are also able to ramp up the production so people won't have to wait two years to receive it. If you don't mind I wanted to ask a question, has it made any difference to the amount of gas you get to the face?
@dieyproductions4403 I can’t say that I’ve noticed any significant differences in gas to the face. Good question 🤔
Shorter barrels would def be harder on the internals.
I actually find it interesting that you do these in the snow. As in a good way.
They generally are that’s for sure. I think that’s why they want you to use an adjustable gas block for most setups.
Hey, we just gotta roll with the weather we get ☃️ When it dips too low then it’s not worth it 😂🌬️🥶
I’ve been looking at that bcg for a very long time. Great review! I’d definitely do a real short blackout specifically for subs.
Thanks man 👊🏻
That’s what I ended up doing with mine. I found a 5” 1/5 twist 300BLK barrel and it’s a dream with this system 😁
I know ammo is expensive but if you're going to test new products, please start using better ammo. You run the weakest steel cased stuff, so when problems arise we can't tell if the product is flawed or it's you using weak ammo in arctic conditions. Right now, steel vs brass prices are negligible.
I see your point, noted 👍
That’s why there’s a patreon link in the description! Free content ain’t free.
Deven understands 🥹
@@devendavidson8 meh.. all the NFA gear he's buying up along with other stuff, it's just stupid to try to save $20-$30 on a case of ammo. Not just for the sake of content. Wouldn't you want to know if your gear is actually having issues or it's just due to poor ammo. I don't mind financially supporting channels but honestly I don't get enough out of his to justify it. Not information wise or even pure entertainment. It's always scattered thinking that is poorly communicated or gear having issues that don't always get resolved. Reviews that are sloppy and disjointed rambling.
Man, I’d love to know where you get ammo Bob 😱 If the cost difference in a case of ammo was 20-30 bucks then I’d be all over it. Out here the difference is more like 100-200 or even more. Man, it must be nice having access to cheap quality ammo 😏
Kudos man 😎👊🏻
I remember a company marketing a bufferless, folding stock AR with the recoil spring located on top of the upper receiver that extended into the barrel hand guard. The rail was slightly higher to make room for a larger diameter spring. I wish I could remember the name, but it worked flawlessly from what I remember. I think its downside was the proprietary upper.
Kinda like those old action movie AR pistols? I think I remember something about that as well 🤔
Sounds like the Z-M Weapons LR-300, they sold the design to Para Ord and it got lost in the Remington mismanagement debacle.
Good video👍. Seems to be a gas issue on your guns, hence the reason for an adjustable gas block as they suggest
works with 6.5 grendel - just a bolt change
Just got mine installed today. They're doing really, really good on delivery times, I got mine 2 weeks after purchase, and it seems like they have 10 in stock at the time of writing. If anyone is put off by the malfunctions in this video my quick review is I'm not sure if they've upgraded spring strength, or my ar upper is better quality than this guys or if its that mine is chambered in .300 blk out. But i haven't had a single chambering issue or malfunction with this bcg. This thing works beautifully. Dropped it in and didn't have any problem. All I can really say is give it a try if this is something you really want to do.
I'm not trying to knock this guys review either btw, just want to say in my experience that the chambering a round issue didn't occur, so maybe it's fixed? But with guns, you never really know with different companies and different quality control and working with all these parts not designed to specifically work with each other just designed around a standard it's a mess lol
I’m glad it sounds like they fixed the chambering issue I was having. Mine doesn’t have that problem much anymore but I’ve also shot it a good bit so it’s broken in well.
Thanks for chiming in and giving your experience! 😎👊🏻
Very thorough and helpful video on the bufferless BCG. Thank you for sharing your experience
Glad it was helpful 🤙
Lot's of potential here, just needs lube, and gas tuning for whatever you intend to shoot with it. Some of your cases looked pretty well at 1330-1400. Some good lube would probably help the bolt to go all the way forward. I see how this system could easily be made to work reliably... I want one.
The cold really gums things up as well. I’m constantly adding lube off camera when I’m out shooting it.
I agree with you though. This system has some amazing potential and will really change up the potential development of the AR system. 👍
Thank you for this review. Getting me closer to my mcx like build.
Nice 😎👌 Glad to help man!
Just stumbled upon this video, and I have a couple things I'd like to throw out there for you and the other folks here. The bolt they sent is a fairly cheap bolt. Milspec is C158 not 9310. The extractor also shows that they use a crappy spring evidenced by the fact that they installed with a spring, donut, and insert. That should only require 2 of the 3 (spring + insert or spring + donut). Definitely looks like you should have lubed it before the test, never take a bcg out of the box and run it dry. The other thing is you're going to have short stroking using cheap steel case, it's just part of the game.
I would like to see one with a strike face for an aftermarket piston gas system
That would be really cool 👍
I was looking in to bolt on piston keys, there was one available but they don't seem to be anymore. could probably make one, chop and plug
I think problem with that would be with such a shortened carrier, you will get some serious tilting problem with the bcg.
Fascinating tests. Thank you so much for your Early adopter work on ews and law. I wish you could dry cycle the LAW ARIC in a non LAW folder using dummy rounds to see whether things fit. I know LAW says otherwise but I would like to know WHY you cant exactly, plus I don't trust those statements given conflict of interest since they would like all of us to use their expensive and heavy folders. Mixing and matching, if it works and if you test it, would give a lighter weight, more affordable and more available option, tentatively. Fingers crossed, huge thanks again, and Merry Christmas 🎄!
Merry Christmas Jorge!!
The ARIC cont cycle because of the two guide rods. Those rods have to be seated back inside the Law Folder mechanisms. I tried putting the ARIC into the EWS back plate and it won’t fit. 😏
I hess as rd timers that Law Tactical will make a version that works outside the confines of their folder, but those are just timers and we’ll never know if it’s real I less they actually announce it 🤷♂️
@@CalebDowning truly insightful. Thank you, and props to LAW for the true statements. Looking forward to your updates! Enjoy the snow, but stay warm and healthy.
Glad to help 👍
Merry Christmas !!🎄🎁
Newsflash! We want all ARs bufferless!
😎💪
Unnecessary and not of much practical use beyond storage
It took me 10 months to get mine! Just assume it'll take at least 6 months longer to get your order than they tell you.
10 months is better than 2 years 😅
Been almost three years since i placed my order, still don’t have it
Dang 🤦♂️🤦♂️
All the new this new that whiz bangery, and my basic freedom PSA rifle running great a decade later.
Nice 😎👌
@@CalebDowning How's the reliability been? Seems that they're actually stocking them sometimes now and I've been tempted to pick one up and pair it with a Riflespeed gas block.
@Spencebot42 Once I got a hr system tuned, it’s been pretty reliable. This system is not as reliable as a standard AR system but it’s still been really fun. If they added the ability for a forward assist then that would fix most of the issues I’ve had.
Only way I could get it reliable is with an adjustable gas block. Since there's no buffer to change the weight of.....gas adjustment is the only way. The bolt lugs also took some massaging to get to seating smoothly.
I have an adjustable gas block on one of mine and that one definitely runs better 👌
How much polishing did you do on your bolt lugs?
Very interesting. I'm usually not a fan of Adj Gas Block for Duty / Go Too Rigs .
This system is way cheaper than SPEAR LT or BRN-180 .
I hear ya, the more “adjustable” something is the more it’s tendency to break. I will say though, this system works very well in my mini 300BLK build without any adjustable systems. I got an adjustable gas block for it but I don’t think I’m going to install it since it’s shooting well and piling the brass where it needs to without it 👍
And yes, this is absolutely cheaper than those other options 😁
@@CalebDowning I'm a Springco Blue for Middys and Springco Red for Cars . For both Blue and Red Colt H2 is standard.
I'd be interested to see if that SPRING for this system can hang with SPRINGCO Spring. I believe Springco is rated for 150K cycles before it needs changed out .
It’s be interesting to see for sure 🤔 I’m generally a Blue spring as well 👌
A game changer
Agreed 👌😎
I wanted to get one of these for a 6.5 Grendel build but I really don't wanna wait two years for it after paying 400 for it. That's NFA suppressor wait times
I hear ya man, it’s a pretty long wait. I will say that it’s worth the extended wait time. I’m thoroughly impressed my my EWS setup 👌
@@CalebDowning the website is confusing. Is the stuff in-stock as it appears to be?
These type of bufferless bolt carrier have probably very litle cycling mass. I suppose
Maybe they could try adding mass by making it out of tungsten.
Lage Manufacturing made tungsten bolt I suppose that ar-15 bolt carrier is possible.
have had 2 on paid in full back order for 3 years
Yup 🤦♂️😏
I'd say I can't wait, but apparently I can, and have to. October 2022 order here, fingers crossed!
I'd love one, but there were too many complaints on reddit about the shipping times.
That’s my main issue as well. It would all depend on how much your willing to wait. It was worth it for me in the long run 👍
@Caleb Downing Thanks, bro, and happy holidays.
Merry Christmas to you too 🎄
Great review, but pls use brass ammo. Looks like you got some 223 tulammo. That ammo jams up any AR I've used. Some hiccups might be because of gas tuning. You need a adjustable gas block.
Brass ammo is nice but it’s more expensive. The best way to make that happen is to get more of y’all over on Patreon 😉
Not going into battery shows a spring strength issue. Some springs and there easily could be a great tuning capability for this system.
I agree. It’s probably hard to get a properly strength spring in so small of a space.
@@CalebDowning yup. Such a small space to put in a heavy spring but offer a really high degree of adjustment and refinement for a short AR PDW build.
Nice video I’ll just leave bufferless AR to the piston driven ARs MCX JAKL and BRN I don’t like the extra length added in the back might as well get the law tactical folder.
They all have their place, but I see your concern.
Does anyone know if these things are actually available? The website makes it look like they are in-stock but there's also a disclaimer about supply chain issues out of their control? Id get one if they're actually available now. Not interested in placing a two year deposit though
They are going to take some time to ship but they are real and it’s not a scam.
Second that. You can contact them on Instagram. The guy said they changed some things due to supply chain issues but it shouldn't be nowhere close to the old wait times
Hey man whats the rear sight your running on that 16" I've been looking for one for a Mk18 Mod 0 build I'm doing
If they get the bugs worked out, get into full production, and grow a customer service department, id be interested
Totally 😎🤙
@3:32 that muzzle sweep is a bit disconcerting, even though I'm protected by the screen glass and a 9 month delay 😉
Plus maybe film during midday with the sun behind the camera, or use a floodlight?
I just ordered one of these BCGs for my 14.5 BCM AR. Waiting on the dust cover to come back in stock. My plan is to use a superlative arms adjustable gas block. I'm curious if the BCG weighs more or less than a regular AR BCG?
The EWS BCG will weight less for sure.
Im unconvinced. I still like the folding mechanism, but so far using the buffer spring seems the most reliable. Shame really, but it will continue to drive sales to the rifles actually built with the internal bcg/spring. I'm not ready to buy one yet.
They need one or two more generations of development before it would be really ready. The concept is pretty sweet I think though.
Great test
😎👊🏻
Bufferless Bolt Carrier Gang
#BBCgang
😁👍
I’m just here for the Buffalo Bulk Hair group
I’m not familiar with that one 🤔
Might be it needs to be broken in a bit, or the rifle being not cleaned with a new/clean bcg may be causing these jams.
Still, bot EWS and the Law Tactical ARIC system have had similar problems.
All possibilities. I have installed an adjustable gas block and that worked out really well 👍
7.62 won't work because it has way less pressure than 223. I only know that because of a failed 7.62 piston build, not enough pressure to run it, maybe on a pistol length gas system.
Ya the system can be finicky but I’ll bet it could be made to work.
Now this isn't coming from experience, as I only just got my adjustable gas block (agb) and still need to tune my own rifle but from the heavy research that I've done; this bufferless bcg seems to like gassy systems if you pay attention to the ejection pattern. However there were one or two bits that seem to contradict that (the 16 inch gun and not locking open some times)... But otherwise it seems to like gassy systems and has good ejection patterns right out of the box with the agb fully open or standard gb, from what I could tell.
But one thing that was pretty interesting was the fact that there was more forward ejections from unsuppressed/longer barrel and gas systems, which is a normal symptom of suppressed/short gas system arms. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I am human after all. It seemed to do the exact opposite when you pay attention to the ejection pattern. This is why I think maybe I'm understanding something wrong because it's defying normal theory on the ejection pattern and causality. However I have no idea what kind of hardware is being run in these guns which could be making all the difference. I'd like to know what other people think.
Thank you so much for the video and I hope to see more.
The 16” rifle has an adjustable gas block that is tuned for suppressed, steel cased ammo(generally underpowered), with a Vltor A5 buffer system. That would be one major factor in why it behaved differently and out of the “norm” for a 16” gun.
I have noticed that it is more difficult to get this system to exhibit the traditional “over gassed” symptoms. It will eject forward if 3 o’clock but not as drastic as traditional systems will.
I’m honestly not sure man, but that’s some very astute observations. It’ll be interesting to see what others say as well 🤔
I want one, but I can't wait a year or more after payment.
I received a message from the company on instagram. They said new orders would be shipping in February-ish.
Hopefully that's the case because I bought one lol
It is a long time to wait for sure but it’s been worth it for me. 🤷♂️
man I wish I could afford an EPS Bufferless BCG it is a much more viable option compared to the Law Tactical ARIC, and more cost effective. by the time you buy the LAW Tactical ARIC, and the LT Folder, you are close to $800 in it. with the EWS Bufferless you dont need anything else to make it work. the only true problem I can see with either system, besides me being a poor is, Stock Status and lead times. Dont let these people harass you, at least you have both sytems and were patient enough to wait great content awesome review
Thanks Mr Short 👊🏻
EWS is my preferred choice for the reasons you stated. If you are looking to make a short system then the EWS is worth saving up and waiting for 👍
Yo yo yo… do you know or have you tried a “POF Roller Cam Pin Upgrade Kit 00393 $56 “ in the EWS BCG? It could help with friction & wear, which would help stripping the bullets out of the mag / full chambering. 🤷♂️ Thoughts???
I haven’t thought about putting that into the EWS 🤔 But dang that’s a good idea, I may have to try it 👍 Thanks for the idea 💡
The BCG is lacking the mass for the forward inertia to fully chamber the round
That could be part of it. Since shooting this video the EWS has smoothed out and is working without a hitch. The ARIC still has first round seating issues.
Then it needs more spring force on return. That would make up for the lack of mass
will this thing trip a fosgate binary, FRT , or select fire lower?
I believe this one should work with those. I’ll have to put it in my FA lower and see 🤔
@@CalebDowning thank you.. i would appreciate ithat
Do you guys think I could swap the bolt and make a 45acp side folder?
I don’t think that’ll work. Unless you get a CMMG RDB bolt and then gravely modify the carrier.
@@CalebDowning yeah I realized that way too late
1y update? Did you replace the gas key?
I did put in an adjustable gas key and that did help. I also just kept shooting my other hit and it’s running better now. They are just taking a lot longer to break in. Some kind of adjustable gas key/block really does help though.
Running it with just the grease out of the box in cold weather might have affected this. Why wouldn't you work your own lube into every part of it before shooting with it?
I generally like to run new items “as-is” or dry. I have found that this helps accelerate the break in period in most cases.
I was dumping oil on these things off camera and they still gumming up. I think the negative degree weather had something to do with that 🥶
@@CalebDowningyeah, AR are notorious for not being great snow guns
Are you using that guns bolt or the bolt that came with the system?
Does EWS offer any other spring weights?
I’m using the system “as-is” from EWS. Currently EWS does not offer any additional spring weights.
So basically use a 16 in midlength
It appears both this and the ARIC are huge disappointments. We'll have to see how it works out.
Sad but true. I love innovation and I applaud companies who push the limits. Hopefully these systems will develop and move forward.
Will it work with the 22 drop in conversion?
Any updates?
I think I’ve got like 6 videos on the EWS. I’ve mentioned some updates on the Range Reports. I’ll post more on it as I get more time on the system.
Since posting this comment I’ve watched your other vids. Thanks for reaching out. I’ll stay tuned.
👍
Can't wait for mine to come in [still waiting].
It’s gonna be worth it when it finally comes in 👌
When did you order? The website makes it look like they're available and in-stock but if they're taking orders without having your order fulfilled yet and it's been a while then maybe I'll wait until they update their website or something. Not impressed with their customer service so far.
I ordered mine july of last year and still waiting for mine.
@dorianthais2687 They need to really do something about their communication 🤦♂️
@@CalebDowning indeed. Still waiting. Wondering if they lost my order because the last three times they said "should have an update for you by the end of the week" and then nothing. Now I'm getting no response at all
So how is this working as far as the bolt going home? cause mac just dropped the law tactical bcg and showed in wouldnt chamber half the time.
This guy can have the same issue. They sent out a heavier spring and that seemed to help out. Also I’ve been shooting this system as regularly as I can and I think it’s simply breaking in and working better now.
If you insert and full magazine on a closed bolt and then rack the charging handle, it will still be a little sluggish from time to time and not fully seat. However, if you lock the bolt to the rear and then drop the bolt instead of charge the handle, then it chambers that first round much better.
@@CalebDowning have you tried 20 round mags? Also how about the law tactical one? Didnt you get both? Cause I've been wanting to build like a star wars pistol maybe 6 inch or something. But not sure what to go with if any.
I have used metal GI 20rd mags and they worked well with 5.56 but they don’t always feed 300BLK.
If your gonna build a mini AR then I’d suggest looking at “Pro2A Tactical”. They have some really unique 5” barrels for 300BLK, 5.56, and even 7.62x39… well priced too 👌
To answer your question though… I do have both systems but I prefer the EWS. The problem with the EWS is that your looking at a potential 2 year lead time 🤯 The Law Tactical ARIC will be easier to come by but it’s not as good as the EWS in my opinion.
What mic do ya use? Sounds amazing. Good video. You also midwestern by chance?
Thanks man. I use the Sennheiser MK600. We’re acutely up in Alaska 🏔️
@@CalebDowning Alaska is nice, I'm in Ohio. Sennheiser is a good brand. Might try my microphone with gun sounds sometime.
Looks like it needs a bit more spring force behind it
They did send me some heavier springs, we’ll see how those work 👍
@@CalebDowning can't wait to see! Love to make my SBR a foldy boi lol
So far it’s been a pretty fun project. It is necessary to tune the rifle with an adjustable gas block but it’s been worth it 👍
@@CalebDowning I bet! Yeah I got a cheap low profile adjustable block. It gets the job done but I hate having to take the rail off to adjust it....
Are you using law tactical back end folder?
No, I’m using the parts that came with the EWS kit.
How much do these cost? I wonder how it would perform with my gassy 11.5
They are about 400 but the time it’s shipped. It’s worked on my 11.5, that’s the gray coated upper in some of the videos I’ve done on this system.
Looks like Utah?
Alaska 🏔️☃️
Looks more like it likes to be over gassed. So actual 5.56 is probably the key.
More gas does kinda ensure that it’ll fully cycle 👌
How much does it weigh?
So it sounds like you need a stronger spring
That could possibly fix the problem.
How did you get your order fulfilled?
Patience… and I hit them up any time they posted to IG.
Today is 09/30/2023, my order is pending since 03/08/2021. Claude has stopped answering me as well. Hopefully, one of these days, maybe, but......
I’m not even gonna try and give them excuses. They have a cool product but they MUST do something about their customer service and communication.
How long did it take you to get it from time of purchase to delivery
It was just over two years.
That’s unacceptable
Bought mine july of last year and still waiting
300 bk subs are super dirty
Totally 👌
Come on guy, a 300 black does not tke the same recoil spring as a 5.56. That's elementary my dear boy
Elementary dear Watson 🕵️♂️
@@CalebDowning yea yeah I went for the modern adaptation
These do exist!??! 😂
Shocking I know 😱🤯
I was going to order one since they’re finally in stock. I’ll pass
Ive emailed them and never got a response
It’s frustrating I know. I’ve had better luck getting ahold of them on IG.
Def IG. Ive been in contact with them. But i think the way IG works. Some people are ending up in a different message inbox, the request one.
I’ll give IG a try. I was also contemplating buying the arik instead and attaching a folding stock adapter to the rear of the law tac folder itself. This should in theory be compatible and allow me to use any stock I want.
I see what your saying. It should work I believe 👍
*my issue with this system.. too finicky. Especially for the price*
I think once it’s been on the market for awhile and more folks utilize it then they’ll work out the kinks.
I've been emailing these fuckers for literally two years, after I placed an order in March of 2021. Still can't get a response and I can't dispute the charge online with my bank because of how old the sale is. They responded to my first email in October of 2021, and stated that my previous emails must have been going to spam, but every email I sent after that date has never been responded to. I've used different email addresses, so their reasoning is bullshit.
This is inexcusable on their part. They need to get their act together, no question about it.
Your best option, in my opinion, is to sent them IG messages and also respond to any new post you see from them on IG. That’s how I got ahold of them. It’s a cool upgrade but their process time and customer service need work.
@@CalebDowning Yeah, I gotcha. I'll probably get back on Instagram and see if they respond. I appreciate the response. Also, have you heard of people going through the same thing that I am? I figured there would be more people with a similar problem, given the magnitude of mine.
@ambusher2718 Dude it took me just over two years to get my order filled. You are not alone in this. It’s inexcusable but I can attest that they will eventually deliver. Hounds them enough on IG and you should get through. I never got much response through email(over a dozen sent emails 😏)
looks like it just needs sufficient gas
That could be part of it. Also too much gas can make the system cycle too fast and cause issues as well. I’m still playing with it.

Definitely looks like it likes to run gassy
When I added the adjustable gas block it really helped out. But your right, in the video configuration it was gassy.
@@CalebDowning I don’t mind a little over pressure helps it cycle faster and make sure the bolt goes home definitely getting me this bcg
This has been one of the most unreliable modifications you could possibly do
I don’t know man… I’m really a fan 😎
But I know it’s not for everyone 🤷♂️
@Caleb Downing I really wanted it to be. But there are so many people over time that have problems with this system, and I just can't seem to bring myself to spend that kind of money.
It’s a new system, and new systems are gonna have their hiccups. Maybe after this one is used for awhile they’ll work the bugs out and make a Gen 3.
It's...... Trash
It’s not for everyone, that’s for sure 🤷♂️
Vaporware. The company doesn’t respond at all. On perpetual back order. With no time frame of delivery. I was interested in this thing I’m not waiting 2 yrs for it though.
I can feel your frustration completely. I have ordered and received two units from them. They can be very difficult to get ahold of but they do deliver, but it may take a couple years.. 😏
@@CalebDowning Jakl, Brn 180, foxtrot mike, sig Sauer and a few others sell complete uppers that ship same week. At only 3x the price. I’d even put the deadfoot 2.5 kit above this unit. If it takes 2 years to get it. They don’t even have spare parts to repair them. Not to mention it’s not 100% reliable out the box. It’s a great concept with terrible execution, logistics and planning.
@Tariq_F._Raheem86 again, I feel your sentiment. I’ve got a couple of those complete systems you mentioned and they do work great. But none of them are a “drop-in” for your pre existing system. The EWS does need some kind of endplate/buffer tube deletion, so it’s not 100% “drop-in” either. They do need to get on the ball and upscale if they want to really break out and grow. When I see innovation in the firearms industry I try and encourage it the best I can. I’m not giving them a free pass though, they have plenty to work on.
@@CalebDowning understood. I’ve been watching the site patiently for 2 yrs hoping they would catch up. With the amount of preorder I do believe they should have been able to secure a loan for increases in production. It’s my concern that they didn’t. Only time will tell
"only 3x the price" is not nothing though. And I don't even consider the deadfoot "bufferless", they just made it a bit shorter and cheat a little by incorporating the giant hinge. @@Tariq_F._Raheem86
