Is KAC taking any suggestions, or opinions from M4C on the potential new 5.56 precision upper that I have heard about you guys potentially coming out with?

This gives me the Obama tingle in my right leg, as few things make my ears perk up like KAC, and LP AR's.

I'm also available to test drive one of these mystery uppers in the future free of charge;)

I hope they do it for the GunPron alone, but there are existing offerings that meet the same functionality - throw a URX on an 18" SS Precision barrel (Noveske, Centurion, BCM, Lilja), maybe get it golf ball milled behind the gas block, add Micro rear sight and you'd have something similar.
As amazing as the E3 system is, that bolt shines under the sort of round count I don't see occurring with a precision stainless barrel often enough to justify the cost. Noveske has their intermediate gas system, and one of those uppers equipped with a URX-3 and tossed onto an existing IWS lower would seem more than adequate to me.
