AR16 or FAL looks

Honestly if the Wk308a ends up having a more AR16 look to it Id be very happy, maybe even give it a FAL look, let it take m14 mags (Id be more than happy with XCR though )

Leave the price around 1.5~2k
Aim for 2MOA (If it can be better I wont say no)
1.2x the weight of a wk180c would be fair , over that I'd start asking for an FAL / Galil Style carry handle
 
To be honest, unless it's under1400, I'll just go get a bcl102, just for the fact that it looks a lot better than the boxy wk180c.

I'd rather XCR-M pistol mags, personally.

Also, AR-16 style furniture, please.

I would love to see a modern spin on this design, but you know how it goes:

1) Make it work until it cannot fail.

2) Make it look cool.

FAL look alike would be sweet, but itd have to be under $2000, or id just go for an RFB

Ya if you like clearing jams every 4 rounds. Ive shot one RFB and could not cycle a mag of anything we fed it reliably. A customer of mine had the same issue and sold it. IMHO Kel-Tec is inventive but not refined enough to earn a place in my safe.

I shall now await the flaming from Kel-Tec fanboys.
 
Personally, I would offer two models: A base version that does not have rails and has built-in iron sights and a fixed stock for those who like the older configurations, and a model that offers rail options for accessories and optics for those so inclined.
 
Imagine Ar16 with wooden FAL rear stock, font hand grip and long SLR / FAL bayonet lug with flash hider built into the barrel. That way it wouldn't be super long. Some sort of 10 round magazine. I'll buy it. Gas regulator please and FAL sights would be super attractive for me. And likely all the other nutz that fancy the SLR FAL look. We're not all dead yet.
 
Given that John stated in the original post that the design is 95% complete is there any point in all the requests to make it look like this, that or the next thing?

It's probably not going to happen but a sneak peek of what they have would go a long way in knowing what to ask for. Maybe it's just a scaled up AR180B

Ya no, just go buy one then.

Just copy the 180, slightly scaled up, controls and feel all the same so it's a good big brother, shooting it would be second nature, and easy field strip.
Carbine size/look as much as possible, there are more than enough big long range cannons out there.
Ambi everything
