If it hits Gunbroker with high demand, it's worth will depend on how much someone will pay. I am betting this ACR will be priced close to the FN SCAR, maybe a little bit higher.

I say we won't see the Bushmaster until after Shotshow but might see Remington MPD ACRs creep out there.

Give us a new toy for under 2 grand! You have a real chance to snag the market from FM at a price thats within reach. Alot of us have been waiting and wanting this rifle. I have been lucky enough to have had hands on with both the Masada and the FN Scar and the Masada is a better mouse trap by far! Please bring it on! Way to go MagPul/Remington/Bushmaster!

So Remington making their announcement at their product seminar makes sense, <i>except</i> that the scuttlebutt had always been that Remington would be the military/police product, and Bushmaster would be selling the "civilian" product. I'm also hoping that the "1200-1500" rumor is true. 2k would be a mistake, I think, as Bushmaster and Remington have a real opportunity to corner a market, if they price it right. Pricing it closer to some of the middle-tier AR-15's seems like a license to print money.

I'm not an early adaptor. I'll wait for version 2.0. Investment wise get the first batch with low serial number if possible. I'm impartial to the boot stock. I do like how it folded for better transportation or concealment. For those that like AR18, G36, SA80, SCAR, etc this rifle is probably for you. It is an updated G36.
