Value of ACP223 vs. WS-MCR

The only complaint people typically have with the APC-223 is the buttstock. Being of European design, many find the drop excessive, causing a low sighting-plane suitable only for ultra-low red-dot type optics. Once upon a time, this shortcoming was easily rectified by replacing the OEM Buttstock with a Dan Haga Designs ACR Buttstock Adapter and a Bushmaster ACR Buttstock. The shortage of ACR spare parts extends to buttstocks now that the rifles are out of production, so this upgrade is not so simple as it once was. Personally, I wouldn't buy an APC-223 nowadays unless I aready had the buttstock replacement in-hand.

Everyone I know who has an APC-223 with an ACR stock absolutely loves the rifle/carbine. They are built like the proverbial Swiss watch and are ultra accurate, reliable and soft-shooting with their rear Hydraulic Buffer system. Once you sort out the buttstock they are definitely worth every penny. I love my carbine....

You know where can I get the Dan Haga adapter? I don’t think buying from the US is an option since ITAR, also where did you get the pistol grip rubber?
 
Did the OP want a black rifle for its looks and modularity, or for being semi-automatic? If you just want something with AR looks, ergonomics, and modularity, and don't mind working your own knob ;-) , you could do a Gucci manual action build using a Spectre Light Practical Carbine or Maple Ridge Armoury manual action
, modular, ARish chassis.

Currently own a bolt action plinker. Fun to mess around with, but I am looking for the semi-auto of these two.
