    Looks great, I wonder how the boys in the lab will conspire to call it a variant of something that it isn't.

    I wonder what the MSRP will be on this. I will buy through IRG to avoid the "others" NR tax

    I wonder which 7.62 cartridge they are taking about? x51, x25, x39.

    Oooh, maybe 30-06. That world be nice, but I don't think that fits in AR mags, does it?

    I'd almost guarantee x39. God would I love a x25 though. Unfortunately x51 and definitely 30-06 requires a lot more re-engineering than they deem acceptable.

    They will very likely call it a MP5 or HK33 variant and ban it on the spot lol.

    Delay roller OS firearms are usually not cheap. The 9mm Angstadt is like 2500 USD.

    Also it will get into the tricky thing with roller.
