We are not releasing any information on products that may or may not be in the works. We're always looking for new ways to improve on existing products and exploring boundaries of new ideas. Thanks.

First the Masada/ACR and now a 7.62 version (Massoud?) My wife hates it when I buy slings and mags, can you imagine what she's gonna want me to buy when she finds out I dropped $5K+ on 2 rifles? |

I think I will wait about a year after the ACR comes out before I grab one. It looks like a terrific rifle though, and I'm eager to see some production units. |

THIS. The competent rifleman will use the sights with which he is most competent. That's the nice thing about rails and BUISs. If I was Costa, I'd continue to use the sights that work best for me until the company for which I work produces a better set. This bucks the trend somewhat of 'riding for the brand,' but Costa isn't selling weapons or weapon accessories, he's selling information, mindset and skill. Personally, I have some MBUS rear sights, but either use a FSB or another brand of front sight strictly because of the lack of detent on the MBUS front sight. What would really be interesting is if Magpul produced MBUS made from steel or other metal. The detent issue would be solved for the front and the plastic-averse crowd would be happier. The dual product line would allow Magpul to serve and satisfy both market segments. I'll be waiting for my free set honorarium when Magpul implements my idea.

Not so much, probably, for cost cutting, but because no one needs a charging handle on the other side cluttering up your weapon and snagging on every piece of gear, aircraft, vehicle or brush . . . |

That's good to hear that the charging handle can change sides but I hope they make an ambidextrous charging handle available for purchase. I am a lefty shooter but the rest of my family shoots right handed so an ambi charging lever would make it more friendly for all shooters

I would guess that it was the only place to put that piece of kit(maybe more for range exercises, not actual combat), looks like he has them front and back. Running single stack to keep his over all profile smaller? Not the way I would go, but I'm no expert either. |

You can either use the best, or you can make up horse shit excuses about it and whine on the internet.
