WK308-A. The concept

[tiriaq]

A Savage style barrel nut system might not be too practical. The gas port must be correctly indexed, both longitudinally and top dead center.

[SteelCap]

The barrel nut is intriguing, it would be great if the barrel thread was compatible with another manufacturers, for example if it matched the savage threading or whoever's AR style and you could adapt their barrels easily enough than any take offs for sale could be easily adapted.

I understand the gas piston port vs. blow block creating some extra work, but as an example.

Seeing other 308 family calibers, 338 fed in a 19" barrel for bush, and then switch to a 243 or 6.5 in a 22-24" barrel for field or target as options would be appealing.

I suppose a 458 socom option for the other model would be fun too!

Would make sense to switch out uppers instead of barrels....if uppers are available separately of course.

I'd rather XCR-M pistol mags, personally.

Also, AR-16 style furniture, please.

Yesss. This is along the lines of the 'galil look a like' I'd want. Very good. Great style.

[HirvGotti]

^ that's definitely pretty slick.

[SSG69]

What about a HAC-7 upper?

[Mr_Mike]

I think xcrm mags would be best.
AICS mags for a semi would be cool if you're building a .5moa rig, which would be stupid expensive and isn't the goal of this project.

also for weight, between 7.5-8 lbs would be a good goal to strive for.

Under $1500
Wide variety of calibers available from 22-250, 260rem, 7-08, 308, 338 federal OR the ability to relatively cheaply change barrels... (USE A BARREL NUT!!!)
Pistol mag compatable would be a bonus
Under 8lbs
Use AR forends so it can be dolled up easily or very minimally
Use a common trigger group so folks can upgrade easily...
Offer em naked (muahahaha)... Seriously... Unfinished, a good percentage of folks no doubt wouldent mind custom hydro dipping or DIY Armacoat or Ceracoat... Saves you time, saves us money.

Ever see an original VW Beetle? The people's car... Make us a people's gun... One in every closet.

Anything else with that. Lol.

I like this and may be make it resemble the FN FAL in some ways. I figure many are eager to get an FAL. I'm desperate to get one.

Best and fastest way is with the government you vote in. Nothing beats the real thing...
