I'm really curious to see if the plastic stock, I mean chassis, is going to feel cheap. My question is, why go aluminum with the handguard and nylon for everything else? Its a little confusing.
not to change the subject but I am, has anyone gawked at the Brownells precision style stocks for the Ruger new American, Howa, and Tikka?

I'm starting to lust after one of these.
I was until I saw the price.
now that my initial excitement has calmed slightly, is there anyone else leery of getting a first run of a brand new gun? it appears that this is built off of the ruger american action which seems pretty reliable and alot of people online seem to like (along with the other group who seem to full on hate it).
i guess the bottom line question is this. do any of you treat guns like computers, phones and other tech in that the very first version tends to be buggy and you stay away from it until the early adopters get them and find all the bugs OR is there little risk in jumping right in and being an early adopter?
I like it but if I buy another .22, the brand will start with a “C” and end with a “Z”.
I am a tiny bit wary of this. Bought my RPR .308 as Gen I. Had to buy the muzzle brake and the aluminum bolt shroud afterwards. Gen II made these standard equipment, although the price was increased for Gen II’s by the exact amount of the parts I bought. Love that gun though, so I think I’ll risk it in this case. Already debating what glass I’ll put on it....now that my initial excitement has calmed slightly, is there anyone else leery of getting a first run of a brand new gun? it appears that this is built off of the ruger american action which seems pretty reliable and alot of people online seem to like (along with the other group who seem to full on hate it).

Underwhelming results on his targets. Hopefully he just sucks :-)
