    Tomac: Does the tulip flash hider come off easilly? I want to get an E4 generation but wanted to also use my suppressor on it. Do you know if the barrel threads are 12/x28? If not do you know if MSAR makes thread adapters?

    The STG flash hiders are metric reverse-threaded (M13x1 IIRC). The new E4's are std 1/2x28 so if you want to use a suppressor I'd suggest getting the E4.

    Is the E4 replacing the STG design that uses the MSAR or AUG mags, or is MSAR making both types? Rather go with a platform that uses AUG (or even the MSAR) magazines, but can't buy for a few months.

    I believe the E4 is replacing the STG but they share most parts and Dave has mentioned that they will continue to support the original STG w/mags and such. Btw, I, too, prefer the MSAR mags, especially the 42rd mag. They've been rugged & reliable w/40% more ammo (so fewer reloads) and I find the extra length to make manipulation easier when grasping the mag w/o having to use Magpuls or Ranger Plates.

    I's curious what the price for the upcoming MSAR 9mm/pistol caliber carbines will be. These carbines appear to still be in development, and I dont know when we will see them.

    With the STG selling for $995, It seems the pistol caliber carbines would be lower.

    The MCS carbine will be right around $1000. It shares a few parts with the STG like the hammer pack and top rail, but everything else is new molds and new tooling.
    Really glad to be done with MSAR.
