Bushmaster Presents - ACR

Is this when retailers will have them or? I think I prefer this over the SCAR...well at least in MW2 lol

[Metalhead]

I prefer it over the SCAR due to the non-recipricating bolt. I'll prolly cave in and trade my AR for one of these.

[Jasongar8]

Yea I like it over the SCAR, but I was never really a big fan of SCAR anyway. Its about time someone finally put this gun out.

[dariks]

The ACR in MW2 is pretty awesome.

[LngRngShtr]

non-reciprocating?

I am guessing you mean it wont have that "Twwwaaannnggg" in the buffer tube when it slides back into the stock..

looks like HK and Armalite got together... should prove interesting to see in live fire..

[Guest SUNTZU]

I can't wait for it to come out so that I can pick up a cheap Noveske.

[Guest m14man]

cant wait wonder how much the mark ups will be

[Guest colombianito1021]

Cant wait. I hope they will be available before feb. Going to afghan and hoping to have this in the safe before leaving.

[Dropkick Murphy]

I've got the money ready to go, have room in my safe, but I have no illusions about being able to get one anytime soon. I've been dreaming about this gun for a long time.

The charging handle doesn't smash your thumb while you're shooting it.

Metalhead: when are y'all getting these in?

[Kegger]

Now I know where all that re-enlistment gun money is going....

Yep, it's definitely a cool one-Magpul did a great job of developing it, and now there is more corporate $ to get it launched onto the market.

[Paletiger13]

A little birdie told me that the Marines were testing these out. Yes, it is a reliable source.

[mk19]

I am happy that the ACR is finally coming out after waiting for it for so long. but i am sad as i got no money to buy one. oh well by the time i have the money the prices well be better at least

[poak]

It will be mine... oh yes, it WILL be mine.

[chunkee]

is this the Masada? or a derivation?

[poak]

is this the Masada? or a derivation?

Yes.

[Guest m14man]

my sources say they were predicting it to be in the $2000 price range but not listed for sale on the dealer sites. have the first one he gets in reserved for me.

[GLOCKMEISTER]

i played with one of these quite a bit at the shotshow a few years ago... have been waiting on it ever since... guess i'll start saving my money.

Btw, from what I can tell the ACR should be much better then the scar.

[Guest TwoLaneBlackTop]

I like having more options on the market but at $2000 the price is excessive. If the rifle is a solid seller and a good portion of the R&D cost are recuperated quickly it might be worth looking once the price drops down to the $1300 to $1500 range.

he said that was when the scars were going foor 3000 plus so hopefuly they will not be that high.

[JeffL]

At the $1500 price point I will definitely buy one. I'm not sure I'd push it to $2000.

Yeah, I think I'll wait a while until supply catches up w/ demand and I can pick one up at a decent price.

I'll also be interested to see if there are any issues w/ the first batch.

[Guest TwoLaneBlackTop]

It's a nice rifle, but what can it do that an AR15 can't for half the price? When they come down to a reasonable level I might purchase one (especially if some military adopts it, then the design will have a little history to go with it years later)

I remember seeing a few FN SCAR rifles sell for 9K+ on gunbroker within the first few weeks of the release (during the Obama panic days) I just kept thinking..... 9K is in the range for a transferable full auto M16 lower, are people really this dumb?

I don't think the ACR will fetch that level of hyper-inflated pricing, but the first few months expect a higher price from the manufacture and a much, much higher price from local gun shops and such.

[Magiccarpetrides]

Unfortunately the closest I will get is probably MW2 :-(
