My first thought was it was some sort of beer or candy until I looked it up, Copes has a line of survival foods :)

Nice but too rich for me. I could buy a bunch of nice MN's for that much money if I had it.

Sorry.... Copes was one of the distributers that were taking pre-orders.Their site no longer shows them. AIM has already sold out... Israel just opened a plant here in the USA. Israeli produced with applicable USA compliant parts. It will be available in 5.56 and has a 9mm conversion kit that will be available, takes Pmags. I love bullpups.. and with the conversion kit I may not "need" the Hk USC that I wanted .... hmmnnn .... I think this could be a write off for work ..... :biggrin: :biggrin:

Bullpups are an interesting concept, but not my cup of tea.

I think you either love or hate them.... lol I'm not a big fan of the AR platform. I can bring a bullpup on target much faster and smoother. I do well with the PS90. The one AR exception that I have found is the Hk 416. Maybe it's the weight? :biggrin: Right now I am waiting till my LGS gets one in..... 8-)

If you are gonna be lugging that weight around you might as well have a '14, or a Garand and get the .30 punch.
