According to the AAC Blog (www.aacblog.com) it's a drop in monolithic upper for the AR that uses the ACR piston system...

...so you can't get a Remington ACR, but you can get...this?

That is pretty f*cking cool. I wonder if it uses a similar bolt/carrier design as the ACR or if it's more like an AR15.

Another cool potential is that I may be able to work with a RDIAS.

If it is a new bolt design instead of a piston driven AR bolt, that could be very promising....

Anybody have any information about this?

Agreed, another piston AR upper is hardly news, a truly different lockwork is big news.

It does LOOK cool.

It's Remington, so 1:7, but it's only available to military and select federal agencies.;)

This is strictly my speculation, but I'm guessing that it is similar to a regular AR bolt because you can see the area in the upper for the cam pin to rotate.

Your observation makes me think that it is just another piston AR. Still, I guess it is possible that the bolt lugs could be redesigned......
