But if it does I will stick to my original statement and we will both see who was right or wrong!

    The microtech will always be worth less than the Steyr regardless of a ban.

    Wow guys I never meant to spark such conversation I think I was kinda wowed by the "cool" factor of the MSAR. I'm really happy I switched over to the Colt. I can go two ways with the ARs now and not have to change optics and stuff between one gun, I'll set one up for close and one up for not so close. I know some of you have lots of ARs but for me to have 2 is big, at least to me!

    I'm with you. I waited a long time to be in a position to buy an AR and I'm very happy with it. I have a 16 inch upper I use in the home and a 20 inch match upper I use in NRA service rifle matches. I understand people have opinions but... Getting a little nasty IMO.

    I agree, no need for anger, were all on the same team we love our rifles whatever kind they may be

    I like this HBAR 1in9 barrel very accurate and balances well in this configuration.
    What length DD rail is that 12"?

    Please show me one example where a clone of a certain type of weapon is worth more than the original factory maker of the same weapon.

    I understand value is important to some. Its only relevant if you plan on selling. If you want a good shooter, function beats a label. Noveske's seem to have more worth than Colt's. Prior to the AWB sunset, very few Colt's were available in the civvy market. As bad as Bushmaster's may be, they did more to expand the popularity of the AR15 then Colt. Kimber and Springfield Armory did more to expand the popularity of the 1911 then Colt. Ruger and Uberti did more to expand the popularity of the Colt single action Peacemaker then Colt. Many experts claim the quality of DSA FAL's surpass the quality of the original FN FAL's. Being an Elitist about having a genuine original gets old pretty fast. The Sabre/Steyr may be worth more then the MSAR, but so far no one has any definitive technical proof that they are superior. The only real Steyr AUG's are the pre 1989 original imports. I see no sense raining on some guys parade.

    I have the STG 556 and a Colt 6721 and don't regret buying either one.
