Since I don't want to write a review, I will say "it was good!" There is a condition though - there isn't anything it can do that you couldn't do with an AR (Other than the QCB which is neat - you can always switch uppers though). It will be an excellent alternative carbine platform though. With a few hundred dollars, I could recreate the ACR I fired in the form of an AR-15. That being said, just because I could build an AR that performs identically to any ACR you could assemble doesn't mean I won't be buying the SPR, fitting a GI 20" barrel, and having an BMI ACRA2. Bottom line, if you have the money and you want one - get it. If you don't have the money or don't want one, you're not missing out on too much if you can afford an AR. If I can get some cash, I'm gonna build this with iron sights, an EOTECH, and fit a 20" barrel. Here are some photos, I'm not going to post them all yet. And a video featuring some members from here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJKGXhAtX28&feature=channel_page |

I like the 1st real picture with the gun that looks to have a chinsaw handle. That looks like a good blaster. Who makes that again?

Thats about how I feel about it. Those sure are some ugly bulky guns. . . If it does everything my AR does. I'll stick to it and save my money for something else. ETA: I was referring to the ACR. and SCAR for that matter. . Some sweet guns in those pics, and I love the bowling pins. |

Quoted: at your bowling pins! Good stuff...thanks for sharing. Not mine but I thought they were photo worthy. |

I lust after that M110, but I am a certainly not paying the price for one, knights has enough of my money.

Quoted: I lust after that M110, but I am a certainly not paying the price for one, knights has enough of my money. Where two were pictured: $8K plus for the one on top $4.7k plus for the one laying flat on the bottom Between my plans for a semi-auto PPSH 9mm SBR, a TA31 RCO, and an ACR-A2, the cheapest SR25 would pay for all of them with some spending cash left over. ETA: The KAC guns were available to demo but the line stretched long. I could either do the shooting you saw in the video or wait in line and have a quarter of the time I had to shoot. (The firing line was only open for 4 hours) The US Navy booth with all the FN stuff was the same way but worse since it was free to shoot anything pictured there. I wanted to shoot the EGLM but I've spent a shit ton of time with the M203 and I can't see how a tan button pusher would be different than a black one that doesn't swing to the side. Other than that, there were other vendor booths that had various goodies, too much for me to take photos of in the time I had to shoot. |

Quoted: That 7th pic, is that Gun Gallery from Jax, FL? Look more carefully at the picture. |

Quoted:
I see someone was at Redhill,GA? As was I. I still can't believe they gave away two ACR's. I have a sneaking suspicion one will end up on gunbroker in the near future. I just wonder what it will go for? My guess is 10-15k. |

Eagerly awaiting the adjustable folding stock, ambi everything, piston running, quick barrel changing, right outta da box …… ACR
Pretty different from the run of the mill AR |

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Dude I saw your SCAR with that loose assed VFG. I thought it belonged to Bookhound though so I was planning on shooting it until I found out it wasn't his. Then I thought to myself, man - that looks just like Ghetto's SCAR. Didn't put the two together! |

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Damn man, just realized I was three feet away and didn't realize who you were, oh well. I was the guy with a red beard in the tan Knight's M-110 shirt. Were you the one looking for your trijicon box? |

I have a sneaking suspicion one will end up on gunbroker in the near future. I just wonder what it will go for? My guess is 10-15k. I would like to get a SCAR and an ACR as well, but most likely never will. I can see no reason why a rifle made of mostly injection molded plastic should cost nearly 3 thousand buck dollars. They look neato, but can't see them doing any thing my ARs won't. Sell them at a reasonable price and I will have multiple examples of each. |

so much fucking win in this thread!!!!
but the funny thing is, with so many people shooting how the hell do you know if you are even hitting anything? i can't wait till my M4-2000 is here, yes i am an AAC fanboy despite the Ian and Surefire lawsuits |
|
How easy is it to switch calibers? It it as easy as a barrel and mag change?
|
|
Thats looks like a ton of fun. also dose anyone know if you can get the ACR with out the railed hand guard?
|
|

Quoted: at the bowling pins! Nice hardware! |

|
It can't do MOST of the things better than an AR. But it sure as fuck is alot quicker to clean than an AR.

Quoted: how much did you throw down to play that day? $15 for the admission fee (Spent months in advance) On game day: $5 to shoot the ACR (Which I could've done for free but I wanted to donate to Wounded Warriors) $10 for a 40mm grenade I bought as a paper weight $30 round trip in Gas $30 for the 300 rounds of ball and tracer I hand loaded and fired (I brought 5.56 but traded it for other calibers throughout the day) |

(Like Ghetto on this page!) I recognized a few folks and had a few people pull me aside to chat. I'll definitely be out and around in the GA shooting scene. |

So is it against the rules to shoot without a silencer there?
I wish we could shoot silencers in this state......... |
