I’d call the dealer as well. On another post on here, a guy mentioned that there are also rifles being sold as Super Duty from Geissele that use different parts. I think it’s in general discussion? From what I recall, for the other rifles there is no set part list, so each Super Duty May be different. It was a means of getting guns into peoples hands faster.
Edit: here is the post from the other thread:

So I copied the Geissele "Super Duty" spec from the Geissele site and sent it to my LGS and asked if this is the rifle they are selling for $1,300.
They responded back that the Geissele spec that I sent to them does not have a "SKU" number or model number. They stated they are selling a "Super Duty" rifle, model #SD-556 and the price is $1,300.
So I reached out to Geissele, sent a copy of the ad from my LGS and asked what gives? Geissele responded "when 19 broke out a lot of the local gun shops were out of inventory. We wanted to help out so we made a lot of custom rifles different than what is on our website and hand delivered them. They are Super Duty's however they are going to be slightly different configuration than what is available to everyone on our website".
Hard for me to comprehend how a manufacturer can make so many different configurations and call them all by one name and not differentiate in some fashion.
So for those of you buying "Super Duty" rifles, did you buy a real "Super Duty" rifle or did you buy a Super Duty rifle?
Wow, talk about cheapening a brand!!!
