OK, can anyone tell us details about the new hand guard system yet? Does it tab into the upper receiver somehow for added rigidity? I don’t see the typical top rail tab like all the other Geissele models: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Db0tkMHjQCx/?igsh=eTM1MDRoZWZxZGt3&igsi=eTM1MDRoZWZxZGt3 https://www.instagram.com/reel/Db9FHa_DWMd/?igsh=MmY0bXY3dHNzbGx2&igsi=MmY0bXY3dHNzbGx2 |

They posted the HICAR on their website. Doesn’t have a price yet. I’d definitely love to know more. I’d really like to know what anti drone capabilities they’re talking about with regards to the safety as well. Attached File |

I will refrain from buying another Geissele until we find out more how this HICAR submission could affect their other products. I still want a 14.5" Geissele with an ambi lower. Unfortunately, I have no need for a MRGG 20" or GFR 6 mm ARC rifle. The ranges around me are not far enough. I would buy a Geissele MRGG-A rifle over a LMT though, and I would consider a 14.5" Geissele 5.56, but I want a Surefire flash hider pin and weld, not HUXWRX. |

I agree. I’m guessing $4k for the rifle or slightly higher due to the steel alloys being used. Ammo if I had to guess probably $35-40 for a box of 20 rounds. Would take a long time and mass production Army wide to see the price come down to < $1 a round for commercial sales. I also think sale of the ammo will be restricted for legal liability reasons due to the higher pressures involved. This is not ammo I would want to insert into a PSA for instance, and there are people out there who will try just that. |

Normal flip down to fire then thumb it forward while pulling trigger and it becomes full auto. You can see how he manipulates it in one of the videos |
