The ACR is not based on a well proven 30 year old design. It has no TDP that Bushmaster intentionally poops on. I think everyone expects it to have gremlins.
This is very different than what SIG USA decided to do. Where they know what the standard is, they just choose to ignore it and release garbage…on purpose.
If someone gets lost on an uncharted trail, I can be understanding at least. However, to get lost on a charted path when you have a map, GPS and compass just because you decided to ignore it all, that is unforgivable because that level of stupidity is a crime.
The ACR looks like it’s based loosely on the AR180 bolt design to me, isn’t that the consensus? They didn’t intentionally stick old M4 barrels with crap twist rates on it and charge $3k?
