I would also like to know the "Disappointments" on either the X95 and the B&T, did you purchase one and there was an issue?

I'm not disappointed, going in knowing a stock solution will need to be developed, no rush as a strap on is working fine for now.
The B&T handles fine, shoots accurate, up-to-date ambi controls, reliable so far, STANAG mags. I will be lugging in up hills and down valleys. As long as you don't get a full length NR version expecting to do one-handed hi-speed room clearing, likewise don't get a x95 expecting to use for precision work.
Don't get a rock crawler to set Nürburgring lap records, don't get a BUGATTI CHIRON to go rock crawling.

Not for me personally. But for many from "non-restricted modern rifle" crowd. There are enough forum threads on those two. Regardless of that, M17S is a player that will compete to B&Ts and X95s.

I owned a Bushmaster M17 modified by KM and its no where close to the ergos of a X95 :)

Im just waiting for the M17s in 308 :) :dancingbanana: Unless the SCAR-H or MDR get released first...lol...

The APC sucked donkey balls because of the crappy balance, weight and stupid stock height. And having to drop 250$ for an adapter and another 300$ on a PRS stock just didnt make sense to me and sent it down the road for someone else to enjoy.

The ACR is still king of the hill for NR Black rifles followed by the X95/Tavor and APC.

WOW, I totally messed the news on this "B&T disappointment" lol the way I last read it; people were blabbing off on CGN, making it up to be the best human innovation since the light bulb lol

Stop trying to make bullpups happen. They're not going to happen.

Why not? A lot of people really like them. If you don't like them then don't buy one but it's a pretty safe bet that when these are available here they will sell a bunch of them and many new owners will be very happy with them.

Just look at Tavor and X95 sales if you want proof that bullpups are a welcome addition to our marketplace.

Some people hyped themselves up too much, expecting the rifle to be some sort of Swiss-made, non-restricted race/precision gun, when it's really just a Swiss-made SCAR with a long medium contour barrel that makes it front heavy. Also, said people had issues with stock. I had tempered expectations, and I don't attempt to use optics accessories clearly designed for AR-15s on something not an AR-15, so I've been having good time with my APC223-SA. I would have preferred a light contour barrel, but I've been getting a good shoulder workout with it...
