Wonder if you can get a 5 round mag to hunt with?
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

That's pretty cool.   I wonder what that little bugger will cost?  I'll guess $1699.

Ick has one of the FN versions which appears to be the exact same thing minus the camo.  He could fill us in.

I doubt it.
 I read somewhere that they take a proprietary magazine that is virtually impossible to get right now, except for the one that comes with the gun.
 
 Huge marketing error there, if you were to ask me...

I wish the BAR mags worked.
I bought the Winchester SX-AR two weeks ago and only shot it a little to sight in my scope.
The FNAR mags are impossible to find and when found are expensive.

  Sorta looks like my Predator Hunter. It's the first rifle I've ever had with a magazine, I love that feature for a bolt gun.

That would sure look good in my safe!
Does anybody have them for sale?
 
I searched and found Reds and Gunsite... with vastly different pricing!
Guess I'll have to give them a call...

A couple of my buddies seem to think it is the same thing... with shortcuts.  Kind of like a Mercury is a scaled back version of Ford or something.
 
Missing side rails, missing top rail, possibly construction shortcuts.....
 
Fills a market and sounds like an excellent rifle.  Actually might have been more suited to my personal needs.... but I already have a FNAR, lol.  The more I think about it I tend to try and buy top of the line with rifles so perhaps I made the right choice....

There is a gun show coming up here in November.  I will keep my eye up for one on a table and compare it to my FNAR.
