Very crisp picture! Bushmaster went the whole nine yards with all the best stuff attached to the ACR, hope hits the market soon.

It's a Remington hat, unless you know that Bushmaster dropped the project and it's now under Remington MPD????

Doesn't Remington own Bushmaster?

Cerberus Capital Management owns Bushmaster, DPMS & Remington.

Thought I was going crazy when I saw that on the AACBLOG last night.

So is it now officially a Remington ACR?

There is both a Bushmaster and Remington ACR. Remington is the higher-end military version. This is a Remington.

so civ any time soon?

What's the difference? Remington stamp instead of Bushmaster? The MPD version have all the nasty "assault weapon" fetures and the Bushmaster going to be a watered down civilian version?

I'm holding out buying another .556 rifle. I think the next one I get will be one of these.... if or whenever they are available.

I like the name "Remington ACR" ALOT better than the name "Bushmaster ACR". If Remington/Bushy ever won a .mil contract for these, I'd think it'd be alot more traditional for our troops to carry a Remington into battle than a Bushmaster.

Either way... it's one sexy rifle.

same rifle, though the remington version is being done by their military and law enforcement div.

I hear Remy's making a 338 Lapua now, any one played with one.

Is it the "idol" or the "whip"?

too bad they dropped the integral flip-up front sight, otherwise it looks great. Maybe they'll actually bring this thing to market before hell freezes over.

It's a shame Magpul could not have brought this to market on their own.

At least Remington's ad does not pretend it's a deer rifle....yet.

It was more limiting and didn't provide the user with an option.

I will be in love if they sell the 10.5" to civilians - or at least if their distributors/dealers do.
