I'd be pretty excited if it looks like either the BRN or a more true to form armalite version. Ideally I'd like to see something modern like the brn, but with the ability to swap barrels, handguards, etc much like the WK/WS-180’s.
 
A NDS-180 lower with all the square edges smoothed out to mimic the grip ergonomic / dimension of the AR will be great. I am interested in a functional and ergonomical AR180B, but not an aluminum copy that looks like it is made of folded stamped sheet metal of the 60's. If they can thin down the receiver to the same thickness as the AR and smooth out the edges about the pistol grip, and then create a smooth fillet behind the grip like the AR for a high tang grip, it will be perfect. I don't understand why they need to keep the boxy look - what makes it a AR180B is the front pivote pin and the latch at the back to keep the upper in. As long as they keep the design the look is not relevant.

I don't care about the retro 180 look - I want a functional rifle with correct ergonomics so my hand can get the same correct grip like how I would do with an AR. Seriously, make me a "modern" 180 that is supposed to be made with in aluminum by CNC milling machine, instead of making a folded sheet metal box using CNC milling and aluminum!

And a PWS made BRN-180 upper to pair with it in 11.5" BBL.

Let's see if I can get this to work:

Looks like an ARFX stock, folding adapter, the rest looks standard AR180B except the built in rail (looking closely it might be an old school Armalite style mount from the 180B. Either the lab is taking 3 years to hand out FRT's or...?

Pretty sure that's just a 180B upper... I think this picture was pulled from Nodak promoting the lower as a replacement for 180B lowers that broke... (I may have seen it before).
 
The NoDak Spud NDS 18 SC FRT 196206


This is a joint project between the owners of NoDak Spud, PWS (Primary Weapons Systems) and IRUNGUNS. NoDak Spud will be supplying the Non Restricted billet lower receiver, PWS will be supplying the upper receiver. Both Mike from NDS and Dean from PWS are extremely talented and renowned in the industry for introducing amazing top shelf products.

The prototype is well balanced and cycles flawlessly. The quality from these manufacturers speaks for itself.

There is nothing in the Canadian market that will rival this platform.

Details will be released over the week.



Say tuned!!!

What can you tell us about this, other than you already have an NR FRT for it. Price, options, timeline???? Inquiring minds, and all that.
