Your Solus doesn't take Nucleus barrels either, and is also a Solus.Well, considering I was heavily invested in Nucleus barrels, bolt heads, etc, etc, and that the CDG doesn't support those barrels, and that I didn't want/need AW mag support because I'm also well invested in AICS mags... I think it was a mistake. I'm happy a bunch of people disagree, and I'm a big fan of ARC, but I do think they stepped on their dick and would have sold a lot more CDG if it was simply AICS compatible, without all the other engineering compromises they made to support a mag that isn't very popular for most uses. Maybe time proves me wrong, we'll see.
Sold a lot more? They can't keep them in stock. They're THE BEST action at even double the price.
The coned breech isn't specifically for AW mags. The action will run AICS. Both benefit from a coned breech. It is simply AICS compatible.
