Is this right? You can buy a basic ACR for $1750 now?

First guy who gets that price for a Cali version + maybe $50 installed for a bullet button will get the sale. They don't even need to include a gimped magazine, just take apart the included PMAG as a 'rebuild kit.'

Meh. To each his own. I decided on the SCAR as was recommended to me by people who shoot lots of guns. I might hate it, as I haven't ever shot one yet and don't get mine until the third, but I heard enough good about it to get me interested in it.

That's as reliable as taking nutrition advice from fat people.

I know.

Thing that sucks is the guys willing to sell to CA won't sell for prices THAT low. But still, comparing the ACR basic to a SCAR is still not a very fair comparison - to make the ACR equal in just features would cost several hundred dollars more on top of that, then to modify its barrel would add even more probably making it more expensive than the SCAR.

$300 is all it takes!

It's not invasive, it's not expensive. It's just $300 to take the ACR back to its Masada roots. The way Magpull intended it to be. The mission specific, lightweight well balanced rifle- not the medium, middle, average size, weight, purrpose-less gun bushmaster turned out.

$300. Barrel included.

So it's mostly a modified barrel right? So it can still be quick changed out?

[Darthbauer]

CRT, are there any pics of the barrel unmounted so we can see the barrel work?

[prerunners4life]

On acr forum they told me to send my barrel to adco to get shortened to 14.125 and the muzzle device installed.. You guys ever heard of that??

I'm the guy that told you to send it to ADCO on the ACR forum. I didn't know about CRT when I said that though. If I can find someone in CA to send it to I'd rather do that but ADCO does do good work.

Ok well I sent CRT a pm seeing if he would like to help me out maybe..
Has anyone done a 13in brl with a JP tactical comp which is 3in long??

You would need the barrel around 13.5"-13.7" long, as you have to account for the threading overlap.

[prerunners4life]

Understood I just want to know if it is possible..

That's it, I'm going to Riflegear to pick up a basic ACR in brown, CA edition.
