I plan on calling up BM to find out how much they will sell me a replacement for. If it's available and only $10 or so, I will take a Dremel to mine. It's that annoying.The safety selector issue would drive me nuts, probably would let my primative instincts take over and Dremel that thing!
...There is a traditional loop sling attachment point at the rear of both rifles, although I do find the location of the ACR's (at the bottom) to be a bit odd. Given the location of the quick detach points, if used, the sling mounting point at the bottom of the stock would cause the rifle to want to naturally hang up-side-down.
I am not suprised that all of the promises made by Bushmaster were not kept. 6.8 and 300blk still are vaporware.
Heck, alternative barrel lengths and profiles in 5.56 are still vaporware! And according to several sources at Remington/BM, complete barrel assemblies will run in excess of $500 whenever they are released.
I sold my ACR last year, and have never regretted it.
For a .308 I would want the SCAR 17S because it just feels better than another other semi auto .308. An LMT is almost 2 lbs heavier.
I agree my LMT MWS is not light, but it is an awesome shooting gun. I am still kicking around the idea on a SCAR 17 as well, but the cheek weld just did not seem to fit me that great...
I almost traded my LMT toward a LWRC REPR, but could not justify over $1k more and it really did not feel worth that much more if any...

They are making another stock for the SCAR now, with an adjustable butt stock as well as adjustable cheek weld. I have a picture off their web site, have it as the background on my computer.

Ok, actually slightly different SCAR, as I had not seen this one before, but since you can swap most the parts on them, might be able to with this one. hmmm, looks like I'll be calling FN when I get a couple bucks.

Dang you! Now I have something else that I need to add to the wish list! I have not seen that before, but I have a feeling that I will not want to see the price tag...
