Looks cool, but priced out of my leauge.

Didn't Rock River arms try this few years back?

Yes, but with a 223 bolt cut for the 30 cal case. CMMG is using their 308 platform bolt carrier, and proprietary lower. With their price point, i'll stick with my $399 or less AK's. Another 30 cal option is the 300blk, which requires a different bbl, still utilizing standard AR parts.

Yeah IF I go beyond my common calibers I'll get 300blk

WANTED: A NAIL

New hammer seeks accommodating nail to drive. Looking for that perfect problem for my solution.

[osok-308]

Yeah, I think I'd just buy an AK if I want to shoot 7.62x39. Much cheaper. Really cool idea though. If it were cheaper, I might consider it.

As Zero Theory said above, this is a solution to a problem that doesn't exist.

I think they know they aren't going to sell many. Lots and lots of words...followed by the pricing.

Too much $$$
