Heh, because then the rifle wont be "milspec" and all of the tards that focus too much on the wrong meaning of that word wont buy the rifle.
I personally want the same rifle that is released to the US army, ie built to a certain specification.
To me there is no reason why the civi version should be any different as far as materials and construction. The only difference should be the barrel length to comply with law.
