Please don't get too far into the discussion until my popcorn is done:D :p
If I may, let me claify a few things about my earlier post.
1. I am not "the" or "a" industry insider. My definition of an insider in this context would be someone who works for a manufacturer vs. someone who distributes or retails their products.
2. I am new to this forum and apologize for posting a "secondhand" item without identifying the author. I wasn't aware that is a no-no. The author gave me permission to post the information provided I did not reveal the author or the company for which he works.
3. I certainly did not intend to offend anyone or cause a fuss, so don't be too hard on me. I found the chart interesting and applaud the fellows that obviously went to a lot of trouble to gather the informaton.
I saw it written in a magazine article as Technical DRAWING Package not too long ago and thought it was strange as I always heard it refered to as Technical DATA Package and that was the first time I heard it called the Technical Drawing Package. The guy must of read that article a few weeks ago and regurgitated it back up.
If you read through the thread you'll find that we have received input from Armalite, Noveske, Rock River Arms, Noveske, and Bushmaster via direct correspondence with either myself or other forum members.
I suspect that what you have found is an "industry insider" that works for one of the brands that find themselves maligned by The Chart and feel the need to defend themselves.
And again, others bring up the TDP, not me. I specifically avoid even discussing it, and the "mil-spec" loaded word, as I do not believe that it is germane to the discussion. I frankly don't care where the list of requirements came from, I only care to list features that are offered and who offers them.
In a way, it sounds like your "industry insider" is even throwing in a red herring by discussing the TDP. By avoiding talking about whether or not their brand in question is accurately represented in The Chart they instead say "well the list is stupid". Quite the dodge.
