Rand0m_Her0 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 So, I have been told that when I show up on a thread things get off topic. So, in that regard I will make a thread off topic. Talk about whatever you want here, off topic or on, whatever. - Remember though rules still apply, no racism, sexism, lewd photos and etc et al. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rand0m_Her0 Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) I'll comment the first gripe that has been bothering me all day. So at Shot Show this year, CMMG released what they call a full "Takedown" Upper. Basically, hand guard and barrel is a separate component from the upper receiver. It will allow you to store it in a smaller area as well as "field" capable caliber changes assuming you have that 7.62/.308 bolt. Everyone is going crazy about it, calling it the future. Here I am scratching my head, going what? We are finally doing what the Steyr Aug has been capable of doing since 1978. How is this "revolutionary?" Also, just noticed. So the rep for CMMG has the upper in Semi? Daz cool. Edited May 10, 2017 by Rand0m_Her0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Anarchy Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 this will more than likely be the next addition to the rifle collection..... in .308 of course. https://www.ammoland.com/2016/11/springfield-armory-announces-saint-personal-defense-rifle/#axzz4gh5WnQLm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeiNRicH Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Can you explain how that is any different than any other AR15/AR10 platform? Gas piston might be the only thing different. ( I can't click the link, work filters) It looks like a semi-standard 16" AR. Ho-hum. Bass Pro sent me a flier today with a windham armory AR15(m4 specish) for $550.

What sticks out to me is the "specs" of the rifle closely mirror the military "requirements" for a battle rifle and at 900 MSRP that isn't too bad.

HeiNRicH Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 I'm hoping the $900 price tag is for the .308 class version. That's just asinine to pay that much for a 'run-of-the-mill' AR15. I'll have to find my 'receipts', but I'm pretty sure I'm into mine for less than $900 including the optic Ok, I was wrong. $1145.38 all in. But it's not a standard M4.
