Highly unlikely that you got one with a bad barrel extension though, I haven't heard of anyone that has. Also, you might want to avoid sighting it in before you have the roll pin installed because installing it will definitely mess with your zero. |

I thought so at first too, then I disassembled the entire upper receiver (minus the stock hinge pin) to include the top rail and now I feel that the roll pin should be installed. It turns out that the only part of the top rail that has a snug fit with the dovetail in the receiver is the first inch at the very front of the rail, everything beyond that first inch is basically just floating. The two steel hexagonal inserts that the four top rail screws thread into are not a press fit item, they fit very loose and just drop right out as soon as the top rail is removed. So nothing is really holding the top rail from moving at all except for that first inch at the front of the top rail. Installing the roll pin will push the hexagonal inserts to the top of the hex slots that they sit in removing any play at the middle section of the rail and the rear section of the rail will of course be secured against the dovetail in the receiver. When the loose top rail issue was first brought up people were trying to tighten it up by tightening the 4 screws in the rail, all that was doing was clamping the loose fitting hexagonal inserts even tighter and since they are wider than the dovetail itself the rail would still be loose. Does adding the roll pin make any difference in accuracy? I don't know and haven't really seen enough testing one way or the other to be certain but adding the pin certainly can't hurt and it's not hard to install either. |

Just checked the barrel extension, all is good. I also ordered the pin kit, thanks for the help. Now I wish someone would make some kind of QD attachment method for the sling(are you reading this Parker Mountain Machine  ).

I'm pretty happy that I didn't buy into the ARX for it's ability to quickly change calibers... Even if they do eventually get all of the different caliber options out there, not much interests me outside of 5.56MM. I do hope the conversion calibers come out soon though as it certainly won't hurt the popularity of the ARX.

I do hope the conversion calibers come out soon though as it certainly won't hurt the popularity of the ARX. For me, the quick change bbl system appeals as much for changing bbl lengths as for switching calibers. If hadn't decided to SBR it, I'm sure that would be different. If/when they do offer caliber conversions, I hope they offer them in short bbl versions as well (for 7.62 or .300, at least). |

Does yours have the same tapered shoulder? Mine came with the A2 and a crush washer holding it in place against this tapered shoulder. Every muzzle device for every can I have requires a flat shoulder. The armorer at the shop had to improvise with a washer and some shims to get it to mount concentrically. |

I would not have expected them to do that. Using a .30 can helps since it gives you more margin for error. Checked with drill rod, it's not perfectly concentric but there's still plenty of clearance at the muzzle. |

Something must have changed between the time you got your bbl & I got mine, because on mine, the bbl tapers, but then squares to 90-deg shoulder that is equal in diam with the FH. Look at the image in this link & note the shoulder (behind the flats on the FH). Mine looks like the one in this photo. |

Definitely a nice perk if you don't have to jury rig your mount. I'll test mine out either tonight or in the next few days; hopefully YHM doesn't have a can back for repair shortly thereafter. The 16" barrels should all be GTG, they must have multiple variants of the 10.25". |

Local shop has had one of these on the rack for months @ $1299. The gun is interesting but the funky forward grip and sling attachment kind of kill it for me. That and thinking Beretta may not support this gun for long kinda like the Bushmaster with the ACR. I'm leaning more towards an X-95 instead.

If given the choice I would take the ARX with it's kind of funky forward grip over a bullpup with it's kind of funky everything every time, especially at that price.
I don't like bullpups though and can't really understand why people have been flocking towards the Tavor. |

There's a pic rail accessory for that proprietary GL rail mount. QD sling mounts that clamp onto the top & side pic rails are available now, thouth I'm hoping PMM or other will turn out some more options. |

Local shop has had one of these on the rack for months @ $1299. The gun is interesting but the funky forward grip and sling attachment kind of kill it for me. That and thinking Beretta may not support this gun for long kinda like the Bushmaster with the ACR. I'm leaning more towards an X-95 instead. This is ARFCOM get both. |

... I don't like bullpups though and can't really understand why people have been flocking towards the Tavor. Probably because it's a wonderful, relible rifle that balances well and shoots great. SBR length with full length performance and no NFA hassle. Other than the odd mag changes, what's not to love?
(IOW, I really love mine. YMMV.) |

Difference is that the ARX is an adopted service rifle in several countries that Beretta will be making for some time, the ACR is a novelty. |

(IOW, I really love mine. YMMV.) Well, I wouldn't turn it down if someone gave me one for free and I don't dislike how they look. I love that Geissele is making triggers for them. 
I just wouldn't choose the Tavor over an ARX, SCAR, AR or any other normally configured rifle that also has a reputation for reliability.

Does anyone know how many beta testers these triggers were sent out to? |

Take that number, and subtract it from the above number. |
