    And, in light of the issue a while back with the 556 needing to be sold as regulated since it was apparently a copy of the 550, this is ok for sale?

    It's a New Model.
    Correct. The 556xi diverges even more from the 550 than the 556 did. I don't think you could seriously try to call it a copy at this point. (Also not sure I agree that the MSP licensing division ever really said the 556 was regulated.)

    The front end probably feels lighter due to the shortened handguard and gas system.

    I wouldn't mind getting one of the 556xi Russian versions when they are available.

    Supposedly mid year for 7.62x39 and late year for .300blk. Checked one of these out at the Chantilly show this weekend, very cool indeed. Some nice improvements, especially like the new slimmer handguard and redesigned grip.
