got ALL my fingers crossed for SHOT, just bought a LT104 and found out my gen 1 mbus' may not have enough clearance  Unless you're using a scope with an unusually large objective it should work just fine. Well, that's a relief...guess I'll find out on friday! |

Can anybody explain what the difference is between Gen 1 and Gen 2? I'm hoping it's a lower profile. They look pretty much the same though on the Magpul website. From their site: Front: NEW Features for GEN 2 * Reduced size for greater optics compatibility * Spring-locking front sight post holds consistent elevation Rear: NEW Features for GEN 2 * Reduced size for greater optics compatibility * N.A.W.S. (No Aperture Window Sight) option by folding down both apertures and framing the target within the protective wings for snap-shots in Close Quarters Battle situations |

Quoted: Brownell's has them up for preorder. Brownell's is saying the Gen 2s are expected to ship early February. hopefully we'll see them before the end of the month. |

With all due respect to Brownell's as one of my favorite vendors, you need to take any speculation about when pre-order items will be available with a huge grain of salt. Placing a pre-order with them will not put you at the front of the line for this or any other Magpul new product release, per se. For example, I had the RSA on pre-order with Brownell's and did not ultimately receive it until about 3 weeks AFTER it was released to other vendors in the market. If Magpul isn't stating a release date, I wouldn't give much credence to the dates being quoted by a Brownell's customer service rep.  It'll get here when it gets here.

| Hate to bring up a oldish thread, but I thought about doing a pre-order for these from Brownells but decided against it mainly on the fact that it could be a while before these are out. Would rather wait for them to be released and get them from another site that I like to buy from. |

On m4carbine.net, Dozer who I think works for Magpul said they will be out late February if all goes well. >Link<

Warning! GD like hijack ahead... Stick, if you had to guess, how many of your 23k + posts are this one line? Quoted:
They are not currently in production. I'm not trying to be a wiseass, my retarded mind just wonders such retarded things. The majority of my posts are technical based on use of items as an armorer/ firearm instructor/ street cop or are images. If you are looking for how many times I've posted that an item is not in production when someone is asking about it, probably 100, maybe a bit more. |

I did forget about how many are photo posts. Well, thanks for quenching my curiosity! |
