Anyone here have any interest in one of these, seems some guys are overly-excited by these...others see them as whatever.

Opinions? Goofy name, and only reviews are overly subjective due to business associations.

While I have no interest, it looks like a darn nice rifle to me so long as there are no smith enterprise parts.

Looks like all the reviews rate it very good. Killer price point for sure. Prevailing rumors put two to three others coming to market with M14 clone receivers. After the Rock-Ola hit the market can imagine some people are suffering a bit of a panic attack. Can't imagine the market will support 5 or more receiver manufacturers. James River hit the market with a receiver, but also a bolt at a very good time, with a product that so far seems to be pleasing the M14 clone crowd.

They look decent, if you would like a different receiver stamp the TeamM14.com forum is running a group buy. Has a DAS style stamp...and looks OK.

Seems like a good time to shake up the market, but receivers are only a small part of the rifle without the other parts. These are the 7.62 receivers that never came back to market essentially...same forge, same CNC, etc.

I'd buy one if I was looking.
