I have to agree with that I would want my firearm to be anodized.
Some interesting stuff here. I would consider upgrading my gen 2 BCL 102 to the new buffer, gas block and trigger systems. I would have to see how that handguard looks in person but it's definately unique and I like their take on a monolithic style. Although some wont' be happy as it is proprietary.
The one thing that I'm not really liking is what appears to be a ledge on the back of the upper right above the charging handle. A lot of backup buis use that spot to lay flat down when folded so you get the longest sight radius. Or in the case of the LMT sight it's contoured to fit in that area to again give you the best use of space. Maybe it's just the angle of the rendering?
Looking forward to seeing how this one turns out. I have to give BCL credit for being innovative in the last while. I wasn't expecting this amount of new stuff to be coming out.
I still think they need to introduce a "trash panda" to the new line...
