New (FUAC) compliant AR (NOW with full features)

Yeah. These aren't exactly going to fly off the shelves in most of the US. I'd like to see a price point comparable to the Troy, myself. Though, I could be persuaded up as far as $1200... Above that it becomes difficult to justify for me personally. Not to rule it out completely, though.

Especially since they seem to be starting with pistol caliber at first (which means even less sales in NY, even just slightly) and not sure when or if say 5.56 will be offered as someone mentioned before it would probably be a lot of work on the trigger design

Got a notification of this video uploaded then I watched it and I'm kinda confused and mad.

I wonder what the beef is about

Oh boy you are missing out, its him and gun jesus from forgotten weapons

looks cool but it just lacks the wow thrill factor when it's fired.. A pump action has more f$%k off factor than this new toy..

Well, that snub was a letdown. I sure hope this thing isn't another flash in the pan like that football launcher. I like mechanical engineering and the idea of a revolver like DAO trigger squeeze from a mag fed platform checks lots of boxes, especially in brain dead restricted environments like NY.

Sounds like franklin armory is butthurt from gun Jesus and Karl talking negatively about the reformation firearm last year. Here I was interested enough to have my dealer order one of the Providence but now my wallet is suddenly butthurt by their actions so screw That.

Exactly. To me it says that they are lacking confidence in their own product and need to carefully select who handles / reviews it. I feel that if said product is truly good it will stand on its own merit regardless.

Hell I dont know if you saw my thread about the Desert Tech MDR? But they did a review if the gun and it was bad it did not work at all pretty much.... well desert tech got ahold of those two brought them in and immediately got working on fixes for the gun and the CEO put out a video on the issues and fixes

It is hard to speculate as to their motivations, who knows other than the guy that made the decision.

Weird. If these guys don't want Ian from forgotten weapons talking about the gun something is off. That guy is legit. A friendly computer nerd, except for guns. He seems like the kind to have a finely honed BS meter, maybe that is why they don't want him talking about it ?

Mebbe, mebbe not. Only the shadow knows. Mebbe the guy was on his way to unload his morning raisin bran.

This is why. It's hard to watch.

I bet that dude currently does not work for Franklin Armory any more and haven't in I'd say 11 or 12 months now

I thought about this more and thought they should have just come out with the barrels. Period. I now just saw a hank strange video where he said they were going to sell just the barrel or upper. I don't think it would have been such a colossal disaster if they would have just done that in the first place. $2000 for the whole package is just ridiculous.

The inrange video the rep said they were also just selling the upper

"With other ammunition...standard ammunition, we're getting about 4 MOA at 100 yards...it's not great, but..."

Yikes. Yes, not an amazing spokesman. Kind of surprised he couldn't answer how it's different than a braced AR pistol. The biggest difference is it's not a "pistol"!

In the audio the guy goes on to shooting people at 50 yards. A bit cringe worthy overall.

So trigger looks to be 7-8lbs and they are trying to get it down to 4.5

Looks like price point they want it under $1,500

That's actually surprising. And great. I was a little worried though when he said the atf hasn't looked at it yet. Now that they are redefining things like a bump stock being a machine gun what will they say about this? If they can get it to market it would be a good option though. Hopefully places like NY and CA won't make up their own definition.

I'm still not to happy with the whole thing that went down with inrangetv, I watched both videos of the inrange then the one hank strange did with Franklin Armory. And it's not jiving to me. I didnt see anything wrong with inranges video

So what is this thing in NY exactly? I guess you'd still need the 16" barrel but now you can have a collapsible stock, pistol grip, because even though it's detachable, it's not a "semi".

We can also see why they use pistol carrier because the bolt travel is much shorter.
