Anyone here in the know on when the upper will be released?

Im jonesing for that upper.   Was planning on a ARAK 12 but the serbu has a pricepoint advantage.


Any info appreciated.

You may have already seen this: video  Doesn't give an ETA but does mention it's fairly early in the development process. I would expect a wait. Interesting he offered a possible price (~$700) but not time-frame. Usually the opposite on new stuff.

Out of everything that's upcoming (Sig 556 XI, ARX-100, ETC) this has grabbed my attention the most. It appears to be a very well thought out piston upper, and I cannot wait until these hit the market. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any kind of release date.

I have a wish list that I continually save for and the SU-15 is my next purchase if It is released soon.  
The Sig Xi and the MDR-C are next.  I love that my collection wishlist increased by 3 this year.

The upper looks like my daewoo op rod / recoil setup. If there was a lefty version, i'd get one for the spouses SBR.

This is the product I'm looking forward to the most.  I'm very excited.

Looks awesome, but since the buffer tube isn't needed what folding stock or telescoping stock can you use?

ACE has adapters that let you use non-AR stocks as well.

ACE can suck it.  After a cutting a tang off my Saiga to use their faulty push-button folding mechanism, they were going to make me pay shipping to "investigate" what they already knew was garbage.  I returned it to Midway for a full refund.  Their "receptionist" wouldn't tell me if I would be given a different folder or the same piece of garbage.  

I lite this one, instead: http://www.lawtactical.com/product_p/2012201.htm

Here's a pic of an AR-15 folding stock adapter being used on a Sig pistol (SBR).  Currently set up to fold left, but it can be switched to fold right as well.  The Sig pistol uses the same threaded ass-end as an AR-15, so it would work in the same fashion.

Seriously I'm highly disappointed in the lack of interests and news about this.  I'm salivating wanting to put this on a pistol/SBR build.

The last thing I read it was dead. Tried googling for the forum I read that on for updates but couldn't find it again. It would have been awesome on a pistol lower with the SIG brace.

I have a pistol/sig brace lower waiting on an SBR'd upper….this would have fit the bill perfectly :(  To me it would have made a great PDW platform.

This is the first time I've heard the rumor that it's dead.
Nothing on M4 carbine or other sites.

The SU-15 is not a gas piston action, it is direct impingment.  The carrier has a forward projection similar to, but not as long as, the SCAR.  The end of the projection meets with the gas tube, where the impingement occurs.  The function is very similar to the Ljungmann, by Mark's own admission.

Saw that.  Would rather them offer an 11.5" URG than 9.5" for suppressor choices and 5.56 performance.

Not dead. Have been in contact with Mark and it is coming. If you look on YouTube and his Facebook page you will see a few functioning videos.
There are probably a few vids on his discussion forum also.
