I hate to be "this guy" but youve got me very seriously considering buying one of these Factory models. Id be HAPPY to sell my AR's for one for sure. But I definitely cant afford the full jam, custom MV.
So heres my question:
I hate the round handguard. But I like everything else about the factory rifle. What are the options or possibilities in getting the factory gun but having the handguard swapped... either to something you supply or something I can supply (im picky abotu handguards).
As I said, im very seriously considering getting ride of all my .223 NR guns for ONE of these... which is a big step for me. But being the picky guy I am (despite being on a limited budget) I jsut cant see myself doing that with the round handguard and no ability to swap hand guards myself.
Have you considered making an option to buy the gun with JUST a standard style barrel nut and no handguard? There are LOTS of handguard options out there that mount to a standard barrel nut and installing a handguard cant be a liability issue since it has no effect on the operation of the gun. If you made that option available, id buy one for sure.
