That's pretty cool, you can change the charging handle sides.

I got to play with the Masada at SHOT 07, and its indeed a great feeling rifle.

Only time (and lots of abuse from me:) ) will tell if its going to be a real factor.

No release date has been announced, but I have an order in house with Magpul (we are full line dealers) for 2 full auto guns (for the shop) and 5 semi auto guns (for customers)

Are you taking reservations yet?

Not yet, and will tell you why:

Magpul is really great about getting pre-production demo/samples out, and then taking FOREVER to ship actual live product.

(take the URB stock for example......)

Once I have confirmation that the rifles will actually be shipping, I will offer them to TGO members first

That's a pretty sweet looking rifle. Any projected/guesstimated price points Joe?

I knew at one point, but that old age thing go a hold of it..

I want to say they are going to be in the 1200-1600 range.

The pricing should fall in line with other quality AR rifles

To the best of my also feeble recollection (worked on to many AR15s without a helmet), retail was supposed to run around $1400. Even if that does get bumped up a couple hundred bucks, (as so often happens when products leave testing and have to be built and marketed in the real world) its gonna be a world beater. My first words to the Magpul guys after I handled the rifle and heard the price point were, "Build a big factory!" and I stand behind that statement. This one bad mutha!
