So what is the rough ETA for when the SAPR will finally be available?

My friends will have a pretty good idea , they'll notice the black eye my wife gives me after seeing the credit card statement . Hopefully they show up soon ... She has alot of feelings she needs to get out .

A feature set that seems suspiciously similar to the CQBSS...

Looks like the CQBSS red dot (red circle in this recent variant with a Horus reticle) is in the first focal plane. Dot size varies with magnification.

This differs from the new S&B 1-8 which has a FFP reticle like the CQBSS but a second focal plane red dot so the dot size stays constant over magnification changes.


See the effect of magnification change on the size of the CQBSS circle in the 2 photos below:

Isn't the rail in GT photo an add on? The original pics were of a SAN with carbine handrails (3 slots), carbine length piston and NR length barrel. No cheek rest and no BT rail. It looks as if BT rails from the CG line will fit without modifications.
 
The rifle shown has the optional: quad rail, bipod, cheek piece and optics.

It was on display at CFSAC and ready to shoot at the sniper concentration.

I got to shoot it today and all I can say is, "Sold!"

Wow, what a rifle. I was going to put all my tickets into the NEA AR15, but then once I realized that the SAPR was on the line, I had to buy more tickets and go again! I think I would be willing to get in on a pre-buy or whatever. Whatever these rifles sell for, will be worth it in my eyes.

It did jam on me once though, which was a bit of a surprise.
 
I had to do a double-take when I went in to see the NEA AR's too. At first I thought they were just demoing two of the NEA Swiss Arms lowers in a Classic Green and a Black Special Flattop... but then I saw the bulky magazine Stephan was loading and I knew exactly what it was.

I was plesantly suprised at how mild the recoil was. I kinda wanted one before, but now I'm definately setting aside funds for one. They need to hurry up with the FRT already.
 
I also had a chance to play with the SAPR on Saturday and thought it was a re-barreled Carbine until someone pointed out to me what it was.

Amazing rifle. I'm sold on one.
 
Was out hunting with my black special today.

This rifle will be the trick for the bigger critters. Yes. I want. w:h:
 
How heavy and balanced did it feel compared to the M14 and AR10?
Their .223 rifle weighting 9lbs...

I didn't handle it enough, but I would place the weight by feel close to the m14. A little bit front heavy but still easy to handle. One hand supporting the rifle during mag changes was a little bit harder than the AR but not as straining as the m14.
