Desert Tech MDR

[atolax25]

So it looks like Desert Tech (formerly DTA of SRS and HTI fame) is releasing their own forward ejecting bull pup called the MDR that's multi caliber and changeable without tools. Personally, I'll take one. As a bonus, maybe it'll kick keltec into producing more of their RFBs. Either way, I really want one.

Sign me up. These boys make some top notch equipment.

If the MSRP is around their current system, I take it this will be an expensive bullpup.

True, but this is also one of the few companies that has actually released caliber conversion kits for their products instead of delaying them indefinitely or cancelling them altogether a couple years after buyers had been expecting them. So they've got that going for 'em.

More pics available from SHOT. Looks to be coming out in .308, 300BLK and .223 at least. In the vid on the link the rep says it'll be in 5 calibers. Unfortunately, not available until 2015

The tavor isn't available in .308.



Target price is $2157 for the SBR in .223, $2450 for the "full size" in .308.

That SBR is straight out of a video game and I want it bad.

The mag release on that is really cool.

I need to start saving up for an APC to make full use of an ultra compact bullpup rifle.

Played with the prototype at SHOT this year. Looks nice. By the time we in CA get it (30" and all) it won't be much of an improvement on the Tavor, but... the cool thing is the mag release button is actually up front of the trigger group like the M4, but releases the mag back behind the trigger group. VERY impressive. (until you have to screw with it to make it CA compliant)

Looks pretty, may give the Tavor a run for its money. Hope its not vaporware. Not sure of size of Desert Tech, and proposed production run number for MDR, but IMI is huge and will probably produce Tavor's and variants for years to come.
