    Got me an ACR!

    I know these weren’t too popular but I’ve always liked them for some strange reason. Lately it seems like they’ve been selling better now that a pistol configuration is available. Bought it with a Geissele Super ACR trigger which was sweet. I’ve been creeping on them since they came out and someone locally literally gave it to me and now I have my eye on a Templar 300blk kit once they’re available. For now it sports an Elcan and had a Knights MAAM pin/welded after bringing the barrel down a bit.

    This is one of the only "could have been" rifles out there, if a reputable company had picked it up.

    I agree. Its one of the only rifles that popped up in that era that really had potential. Its really too bad what happened to it.

    This is next on my acquisition list.

    Despite their problems I just like them and really regret selling my old one.

    How does the recoil impulse compare to other 5.56 rifles? Also is the bolt lock release stiff or hard to actuate?

    Looks fantastic

    I got one too a while back. Oddly enough, I have yet to get around to firing it.


    I'm trying to figure out the logic of the step up in the barrel diameter towards the muzzle.

    Not that it applies to me but you can purchase a 6.8 APC barrel assembly directly from Bushmaster which is pretty cool.

    To be fair, if the gun hadn't been licensed to someone, it would have never been made. The Masada was badass, but was nowhere near ready for production. Remington had to essentially reengineer much of the platform to make it reliable and manufacturable.
