When we published our breaking story on the MagPul Personal Defense Rifle (PDR) Personal Defense Weapon (PDW)-type 5.56x45mm NATO (5.56mm NATO)/.223 Rem. bullpup SBR (Short Barreled Rifle)/subcarbine in May, we forgot to add the photo provided below.

So, we just added the photo to that previous article, and we’ve also provided it for you here. We shot the photo below at the MagPul booth at NDIA Small Arms Symposium 2007. In other words, we shot it during the same photo session as the other photos shown (previous article).
