I wanted to start shooting 223/556 this Spring and was close to dropping the wad on a MRA Renegade. My mind was set, choices were made and I was very happy and at peace with myself...

Then this fucking thing showed up.

On the bright side you will still be able to shoot the Renegade in a year. I pre-ordered a Makasi but am 100% certain I'll end up buying a Renegade due to future events.

I just wish I wasn't so imbued with fiscal responsibility and common sense. I absolutely know my brain would explode having all my eggs in this basket... and it gets banned, with my luck, while it's being shipped to me. I'd be mad at the world for a month.

One bright spot... wait on the Renegade for a couple of weeks. While the Canadian firearms buying public is pouring all of their new-buy money into these things, they'll be buying little else. It might drive the prices of everything else down a bit.

But not .223 or 5.56 ammo. Better get smart there...

It wont sell if its much more than a Tavor X95. Has to appeal to the American market also.
