I don't think I would buy one yet. I am with everyone else in saying I would buy a really nice DI rifle, or go with a custom piston upper.

+1 to that.

Not to mention for that kind of money the quad rail should be free float, and it shouldn't be heavy. The between generation piston rifles just don't seem that appealing with the next generation already out (SCAR, XCR, etc.)

I can't wait for the Bushmaster/Magpul ACR to come out (if it ever does). That looks interesting.
