I was torn between FDE or ODG. I’m confident I will order the 556 rifle in burnt bronze if they offer it. Here’s to hoping I win the FDE raffle gun haha.

I ended up ordering ODG, so I’ll be waiting also. But Ryan said there was approx 200 pre orders, at 10 a day we should all have them by Christmas.


Edit: I just realized it’s dec. 7th. Maybe we won’t have them for Christmas.
 
Whos buying Calgary Shooting Centre's sweet ar10 integrated bipod forend thingy? Sry in advance if this is inappropriate

He said they were being shipped in the order they were ordered. If TSE put in their order before you put in yours then they will get theirs first, if you did then you will get yours first. It is what it is. Mine is FDE so you will get yours before mine. Sucks for me but it is what it is.

gee....i kinda thought the lol at the end of my post would have signified that I WAS MAKING A JOKE.....
guess next time...i'll put at the top and bottom......BE PREPARED, THIS IS A JOKE, NOTHING SERIOUS HERE
 
Close to 9 pounds is pretty crazy. I get all of the other great things about this rifle, but 10+ pounds after adding a scope is really pushing the limits of acceptable.

Hopefully someone in the future will run with this premise and knock a couple pounds off.

This gun would look fantastic with a lighter hand guard, and skeletonized reciever, but in the end, with the length of the barrel, it’s never going to be a light gun, unless you get a custom carbon fibre wrapped barrel or something. But with all these additions, you’re probably looking at a $4000-$5000 gun. I’m guessing the FRT doesn’t cover a skeletonized reciever.

Take a look at F1 firearms skeletonized AR’s

There are other comparable AR 10's that are heavier. The AR10 is not an AR 15. They have always been heavier.
 
If they were offered with pencil barrels and carbon fibre forends guys would gripe about not having a heavy contour... different strokes. If it bothers people that much they can modify it as they see fit. Me. I'm patiently waiting on my fde unit to ship. I maychange parts later but I plan to give it a proper break in and hashout before I judge too much

On another note, International Barrel and Maple Ridge will both be making barrels for the 102. Individual extensions will also be available for people who want to make custom barrels is strange calibers.

now just make your receiver sets available so we can use these barrels w/o scrapping parts

I want to buy some of these takeoff parts. I'm happy with mine. More parts means it can live forever.

You mean like an Armalite AR 10 at 8# 10 oz? I'll weigh my Remington R25 7mm-08 later, but I'd bet that pig's heavier than the BCL.
 
2.5lbs can be trimmed off this rifle by replacing the steel handguard with aluminum and installing a pencil profile barrel. More weight with a low mass BCG, hydraulic buffer, etc.
 
I would assume Canada Post and UPS should be delivering some guns to people tomorrow. We’ll be shipping some more tomorrow.
