For me the worst thing is they hardly have enough time to make the changes, yet alone test any of it.
As for the comments saying they received feedback, from who? Where is this test group? I think that is a line we were sold, to disguise the fact they probably were able to make it cheaper with these changes, and more proprietary to them.
Just my guess.
What would be really funny, is if they now took proprietary mags!

If they got feedback saying we want a proprietary handguard that we cannot change ever. Thats BS
I bet you anything the Gen3 will feature a handguard back to normal as an ''improvement''
I really can't even believe it, I can't believe I bought a rifle that when from customizable to proprietary and I can't believe BCL is actually going to ship us this product.
Oh, thanks, but I already came out with gen 4 design, so you're on the gen 4 preorder now.
Here's a picture of gen 4, I have improved the design

People actually bought more NEA products?
7 pages worth, Jeez
Will at least you don't have to pass it past the wife first.
well, I was just about to sell my gen 1 102 to buy a receiver set in the future.
looks like I'll keep it b/c they made everything proprietary.
jesus christ
good thing I found this thread

This is what worries me. Is it better off to wait for gen 3 and hope they return to a normal handguard?

all the fanboys in the other thread seem to like the idea of proprietary parts. lol. Must be something in the water where they live...lol...
NEA needs this cash-cow to produce. They never cared about the customer when they were here shilling. they only care about making money.
They're happy because their wife won't let them spend more than what the rifle originally cost and now you can't make yours better than theirs.
I am just asking from the point of usability, I dont know havent had much time behind firearms yet. The M305 is better for my pocket book, but, the 102 looks cool as all hell...apples to oranges Ones a AR10 the other is well a 305.
