There is one guy, a dealer from Ohio, who took several swipes at the 180, but he also slammed the originals, so he just doesn't like the 180 and does have an agenda. Comments such as
A few here may disagree, but upon my inspection of this new Armalite AR180 offering at Camp Perry, stick with the current design, the AR15. You wont regret that decision.
The new Armalite not only LOOKS cheap, but feels cheap too. At a price of $129 dealer (NOT!) I would still not be interested.
Just my opinion. If the 180 was such a fab design, where is it in year 2001?

I'll orbly get the new one when its relesed.I think all AR-180s feel kinda cheap because of the way they are manufactered.
Well then you are gonna LOVE the new Armalite AR180! That plastic lower really is cool, but the handguards are the clincher.

The sarcasm is quite obvious and he sounds like he has some AR15's he needs to sell. But nooooo, he has no agenda....NOT! Oh, he was being honest, he just doesn't like stamped guns.
The other guy, jon, was referring to the 'cheap' price for the new one.
One guy slamming it and five guys praising it, but he has no agenda. Maybe he is not the only one with an agenda. The finish was never brought up, just the same guy bitching about the polymer lower, calling it plastic. He probably thinks the polymer lower on Glocks is wonderful, but not on the 180B, but he has no agenda. The only preban 180 owner who said anything bad was about parts availability and price of the originals, after he (dean) praised it as a great rifle.
There was also a guy here on ar15.com who, on your post about the robinson m96, posted that he saw it at camp perry and he thought it was awesome. Go figure, but we should not listen to him but only listen to the other guy with no agenda.....NOT.
