I don't buy a weapon to save $300 just because I "might" put a different stock or set of handguards on it. I buy a weapon with the expectation that it has all top-tier battle-ready components in it.
To my mind the Expanse especially, and now potentially the OEM series cast doubt on that confidence.
Just my two cents.
