    The area between the pistol grip and the magazine looks odd. Almost like they have been bent towards each other a little.

    The Firearm Blog did a review on this. The retaining tabs of the BCM handguards melted off, which surprised me considering BCM is usually top quality.

    $650 not counting optics. Last name brand AR I bought is my Bushmaster XMP15 (HBAR). I see no advantage to paying top dollar for a name.

    Ho-hummm

    So you get Bravo Company furniture, an H2(?) buffer and a single stage GI trigger with nickle-boron coating ... for nine hundred dollars ... oh, excuse me ... $899.99

    Isn't an M-4 barrel without the m-203 cut just a carbine barrel? Don't get me wrong, I prefer the carbine barrel anyway ... I've never seen the advantage of putting a weak spot just in front of the gas block anyway ... unless you have an M-203(style) launcher on it ... unless it gives you a warm and fuzzy GI Joe feeling.

    the springfield fanboys will buy it, that's the only reason they put it out.







    They must make good products anymore cause their M1A's can't even sell at $1300.

    Hey look.......ANOTHER AR on the market. Meh. The AR market is saturated. Innovate something new besides pooping out another gold turd.
