That hand guard doesn't have my attention, and I'm not big on the cut of the mag well, but I am more than interested in this...

I have enough "bad guy" guns...but I would like at least one "good guy" gun in my collection...but not if I can't take it anywhere...and the "NR tax" is enough to steer me away from many alternatives...hope this comes in at a reasonable price point...

Yes the angle of the mag well was the only thing I'm not too fond of. Furniture can be changed easily enough.
I'm really hoping they pump out a standard version and don't focus too much on the custom ordering options. Stick to the KISS system.
I'd be interested in a basic .223 version and a couple receiver sets so I can build my own, IF they keep the price reasonable. I think the price point of this will determine it's sucess or demise. I really hope they see the truth in "a dollar in the hand is worth two in the mind". If they do everyone will own one.
Regardless I'm excited to see another option available to us.

I just hope they make a “snake” version! Double barreled NR semi auto? Yes please! Why? Why not? Oh and I actually like that handguard. Is it a fortis? I thought I saw a version like that from them.

Add the BRO muzzle brake and you kinda get that mid evil theme going:)

My main point of concern is compatibility with different triggers. If you look the receiver is wider than standard in the trigger area and there is a lack of trigger pins visible. The trigger is one of the first things that gets upgraded. Hope there isn't anything funky about it that would limit choices.

Agreed. I was wondering the same thing about the trigger.

I also don't like the more angled magwell. But at least it looks like you can run a phase 5 Bolt catch.
 
From everyone else's oppinion, simply because I can't seem to find a ton of info on these, what makes these upper and lower receiver sets worth a grand? Maybe I'm just being cheap, but curious never the less.

Ouch!!! Just added up the costs of the components I would use for a build. Works out to more money than the AR style NR rifle I bought from "someone else". I'll have to wait this one out for a while and see where it goes. One could still be made for less with cheaper components though.

Strictly its NR status as far as I can tell at this point. They have something no one else is able to offer yet. Keep in mind some R receiver sets fetch this price also so it's competing with top of the line R sets but in a NR offering.
