Huh. Ball bearing locking lugs.
Per the video (for a right handed shooter) the bolt handle rotates clockwise to unlock the ball bearing lugs and you pull the bolt back to eject the spent case.
Then push the bolt forward to close it and feed a new round, and the bolt handle rotates counterclockwise to lock the ball bearing lugs into the receiver before firing.
I hope they have it designed where it cannot fire out of battery.
I'll wait to talk to somebody who actually owns one. It seems like the very first YouTube "reviews" of new guns that come out are click bait "unboxing" videos with no shooting.

EDIT for clarity

I’m wondering too if you’re a right handed shooter, could you or would you run the bolt off the left side in order to keep you dominant hand near the trigger?
