Because its easier to cry and get public support on how guns are "dangerous" than it is to actually try and keep criminals from getting them.Sad because making stuff illegal only keeps it out of the hands of normal law-abiding citizens. If a criminal plans on using a gun to hurt someone he doesn't care if its illegal to own.

That's what I'm trying to tell my friend. This gun would be an ideal sidearm for tank crews and pilots. It's small, light, and easy to store. My Uncle is an Apache Longbow pilot and he was impressed when I showed this to him. He could keep it in the cockpit and not give it a second though because of it's size. Thanks for the good first hand opinion. Good luck and god bless out in the field.

I'm an Abrams tank commander, and I would LOVE to have this instead of the M-4s and M16s we currently get issued. It would allow all crew members of the tank to stow their weapon in their respective station, instead of in the sponson boxes. Since it's a bullpup, it wouldn't be much of a decrease in lethality from the M-4. Issue me this with a full-auto selector and give me a Sig to replace my M9 and I'll be happy as a pig in s**t. Good stuff, Magpul.

One very significant advantage I noticed was the fact it uses a gas piston system and not direct-impingement, so it will be much more reliable than any M16 or M4. But, since it only has a 12" barrel, velocity will be affected, something M4 already has a problem. The fact it is a bullpup quickly caught my attention though. If Magpul continues to work on it, possibly chamber it for other calibers, it could turn out to be very promising.

This would make for a great PDW. Much better than an MP5 or any sub gun.

12.5 barrel is too short for 300meter shotsall civilian rifles need a 16in barrel and26in overall lenght unless u SBR itits little more difficult to get expert or even sharpshooter with the m4 the longer barrel and sight radius helpsi dont see how you would clear a jamit looks like the foward ejecting keltec .308riflewith the crappy mags the army use to issue usid rather have a TAVOR compactor steyr aug

Oh man, I want everything that the magpul guys make. I want to job there. F-ing cool.

Hopefully the military will look to replace the M16 and some M4's from service when the ACR comes out around 3rd quarter of the year for the military

The only advantage I see is what he said, is that it's uses standard 5.56 Nato ammunition, so the guy with an M4 could throw this to his buddy if he were to run out of ammunition. I wouldn't see why even in "Concealed" mode or PDR-C you couldn't just slap a 30 round mag on it. Just Imagine if could except the Beta-C mag buwhahaha Just one word "evil".
