For $2500 it should look like this(minus the optic)

http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/acrfull-tfb.jpg

Congrats on the new rifle, but I'm gonna have to wait on the above version before I consider buying one.

For $2500 I better get a damn folding stock


That picture makes me want to get ghey for a ACR.


And away we go !  I can see the thread now: Would you suck cock, if there were no witnesses, for an ACR of your choice?

Why would anyone want one of these in Black.

Dark Earth is the only option that makes sense.

I'd rather not have the hand scorching gas widget hanging out in front like a misplaced Vienna sausage, but that's just me.  




I'm plenty patient, so I'll be watching and waiting for the version I want at a price I'm willing to pay.  It may never materialize but then again, it might.  Sig finally got the 556 mostly right with the classic line, took them a couple of years though.

Before you guys give him any grief, The ACR and SCAR that he bought run the same price. So its not completely out of the realm of what people will pay.


Except this the BASIC ACR... no rails, fixed stock.

And that shitty barrel.....

Can't change the grip (though I happen to like it... still... you advertise the most modular rifle and then take a step BACKWARDS on customizability).

The need better barrels (1/7 please), a lower price, And something better than plastic sights on a $2K+ rifle.

A base model of a brand new coming out at an exorbitant price, what's new? The AR is only as cheap as it is because it's been out for 50 years in varying forms.

I'm disappointed too, but the price will come down. Ghetto just likes being that first kid on his block with a new toy. He could wait 2 years, but paying the extra $1k is worth the 2 years of bragging rights to him.

Bushmaster fixed the 1/7 issue:

Grip issue

http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2010/03/31/remington-acr-multiple-lower-receivers/

This is the base model, future models will have rails, folding stocks, etc... standard. But until then, pride of ownership is the biggest piece of the price.


Awesome, with a couple'o eight hundred more dollars, you can turn it into an AR

Please reference this thread http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=2&f=28&t=187779 in your review.


Personally I'm very interested in the barrel's ability to return to zero.

I don't care what people say, that is one sexy rifle.  Anxious for a range report.  Not sure I like the "dished" rubber buttpad.

From what I've read/heard. The will be a black SCAR-H and SCAR-L coming out eventually. I believe the L has already been released but I'm not sure.

For that much green I'd want rails for my light.

How do you attach lights/VFGs to that handguard? Can you?
