MPA BA Chassis vs MPA Hybrid

I went with the Hybrid for my hunting/backup rifle. I don’t need the thumb wheels. I also got the folder to make it easier to throw in a case.
I haven't actually measured everything on mine, but they have thinned the wall thicknesses in lots of spots and removed the thumbwheels. I think I'm going to like having the lighter option, as I ended up hunting with a comp setup last year.
I have an ultralight on order for a 9-10 lb option with the ergo's I'm already used to. Once I get everything in hand and sorted out I plan a big write up of the system.

Ive had both and one thing about the hybrid is that I keep my cheek piece up pretty high so I cant remove the bolt. I have to get out an Allen key to lower the cheek then I can remove the bolt. I like to take my bolt out when I case it, and obviously when cleaning so that's one more time consuming step. Best case go with the hybrid folder if you can find one. Also with the comp there is rail in front of the scope for clip ons. I dont have any NV or need for this so I don't miss it.
Without actually measuring, I can't tell that there is any length difference when they are side by side.
Hybrid is shorter and doesnt have NV bridge.
Thinner and more holes cut.
No wheel for tool-less adjusting the cheek and butt plate.
But same other than those 3 main differences.
And new versions of both BA Comp and Hybrid have Ambidextrous action cuts for RH or LH bolts....and the BA Comp no longer has the Castle Cut in the magwell

I found out that the 2019 Hybrid barrel channel has been opened up to accept a 1.250 barrel; largest prior was M24.
Done.

Anybody know if there's an accessory for the mag release; my index finger doesn't quite reach and I noticed two holes?

I believe this is what you are looking for. https://www.anarchyoutdoors.com/masterpiece-arms-chassis-mpa-extended-magazine-release/
I replaced all of the allen screws in the stock of the hybrid with thumb screws, I like it much better now. Having those studs was about the damn dumbest idea of all time, but it did at least differentiate somewhat between the models. The hybrid with a weight kit I prefer to the BA Comp.
