No, GAPs aren't in the way. To remove the handguard, you twist both lever locks 90 degrees, then pop the levers. ETA - And as usual, Fingar's pics are the stuff of legend.

Sexy ? Meh, pulling a barrel out, then slipping one of a different caliber right back in ... yeah, I guess you could go there. Be nice to have yourself a nicely-mounted scope sighted-in for each barrel, ready to straddle the rail and slam some downrange.  So it's like a LaRue ACR/ Masada ????? 
Uhhh... hey haters.......are you still calling the tOBR vaporware ????

Well I just ordered an 18" Version with hopes of taking it long range. But I got WAY late on the bandwagon. Anyone have pictures of the 16 or 18" versions? |

I cannot stop looking at these pictures. Who wants to buy a slightly used PredatAR ? Dreams of 6.5 and 300 barrels dance in my head. Time to start saving up like a mad man. Maybe get a second job. Still need a test shooter Mark ? |

Your reading-fu is strong, shoot-a-grasshopper. can't wait. My order was placed around 5:00 am the first day, so when they do start I should be pretty high on the list. My only problem is I am really enjoying my new PredatAR and I don't think I'm going to be able to let it go... Damn my wallet is getting light.
