After 10,000 rounds of live fire, the 7.62 release date draws near!

Definitely interested to seeing what the retail price will be, along with weight, muzzle device and expected accuracy.

Seems like they are also using a new handguard design. Either that or I'm out of touch with what DD's producing now.

Now its BCM's turn to churn out a 7.62 gun

Just saw that looks cool

Key mod ruins it for me. If they had a mlok or 1913 rail I'd be salivating. As it is, no interest.

I'm going to guess price will fall in the $2000-$2200 range, which would be very attractive, considering their 5.56 rifles run around $1600-1800. Would be an attractive price, and competitive with similar offerings. Street price might be closer to $1900.

Looks like a full size DPMS (gen 1) platform which means it will have a lot of competition. I'm still hopeful that the DPMS Gen 2 will gain in popularity and we'll see options proliferate for that platform which, to me, just makes a lot of sense.

There was a write up on this gun in a magazine recently. I think it was the previous issue of Recoil.

Interesting design on the handguard.

If they can sell it for under $2k they will own the .308 AR market.......but is will probably go for much more....
