AR stock = 1
Extension tube =2
AR lower = 3
Modified upper = 4
AR forend = 5
I could split hairs and add another part for your barrel nut...
Studying firearms since you were a kid isn't unique. I built my first benchrest Mauser at 11 in my gpa's machine shop, and I'm not unique either. Designing a bolt action rifle on the AR platform isn't unique either. It's a niche which CAN WORK, but yours is lacking in novel improvement over what is out there already, and has a few critical issues which you need to address.
How do you open the bolt if there is no gap? The bolt has to move rearward, and the handle has to have somewhere to go.
And again - you have this idea to offer cartridge modularity - please explain, because pro gunsmiths and engineers have been fighting that for a very, very long time, but you solved it in your first design?
