SIX New Modern Sporter Models!

Oh my, that MS-LCR is tempting! I've already got my order in for an MS receiver set and I'm in the process of figuring out the rest. I have a general idea on parts for most of the rifle and so far I've only purchased a couple items for the build, but, this is a b.e.a.uuuty. And would relieve the rest of the stress that has been going into compiling the list for my first rifle. *sigh* What to do?!
 
Question...

Are these pins "normal" AR15 style push pins? Or do they do/have the annoying feature the B&T APC 223 does where the front pin is locked?

The modern Sporter takes down in the same way that the modern Hunter and modern varminter did, meaning you pull the standard front pin and slide the upper forward before it can be lifted off the lower as the rear lug engages on a cross pin but the cross pin does not pass through the rear lug.

The modern series of rifles has been designed so that the bolt carrier group protrudes from the rear of the upper, making it impossible to hinge open as well as fit the AR opposing receiver. This is a big part of what allows it the non-restricted status.

In the modern Sporter the rear takedown pin typically comes fixed but upon request can be made to have a detent so you can run standard rear takedown pins as it helps the takedown process with some drop-in trigger packs.

they are beginning shipments in the next week or so, as the sets come back from anodizing.

they've been bombarded with phone calls and emails by some extremely important people asking for updates on individual serial #'s
 
not really in the market for the modern sporter but damn ATRS..... those are some nice packages.
If I was in a buying mood.... that Titan model would be my pick

Of course they are, people looking for the merch they paid for and waited for. I was going to give at least till Oct 1st before I called.

I think that the boys at ATRS have been doing a great job communicating and update everyone on this forum who are waiting on their MS's.

They've also made it abundantly clear that calling and emailing them for updates on an individual basis delays the whole production. Those of us on the early end of run #2 are approaching a year, I bet we would have them by now if it weren't for the impatient few.
