I like it and its in one of my favorite calibers also!
Last time I was in A-Stan (2009/2010), the Italian SF guys were just starting to get these in theater. Has anyone heard about their performance under austere conditions?
I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.
Due to recent history I can't help but have some lingering doubts. What do I mean?
At first I thought the Massada/ACR would be the next great carbine. What a dissapointment that has been. While I realize there may be a few who have married themselves to it, I say it has been a failure. Totally FUBAR'd by BM, I would not spend $9.99 of my own money for it.
Next the SCAR 16, while I like it and feel it is a decent carbine I do not feel it offers enough advances to justify it's cost. If it came in at half it's current price I might be tempted but I do not see this happening any time soon.
And now the ARX160. From my own research, my personal feelings are that it is far beyond the first two at this stage of it's life. From what I gather it's reliability and execution are quite promising and it seems to be gathering steam from so many forces adopting it. And now from the latest targeted price point I have seen I am begining to build hope once again. Could this finally be the improved carbine we, I, have been waiting so long for? While I still remain sceptable I certainly hope so.
