Anyone played with a Beretta ARX100 yet?

Saw a few video reviews and seems like a great gun... I like that the .300 AAC and 5.56 barrels are out and both easy to change, and 12 inch barrels on the way. Before I pull the trigger and snag one, has anyone come up with any downsides to them? Seems accuracy is average for a mil style gun with reports of 1-2 MOA with standard ammo, so im guessing possibly 1.0 to sub with good ammo and optics. At quite a bit less than the comparable plastic piston guns, I was curious to try one out and have some suppressed fun.

Thoughts? personal non biased reviews?
 
I would like to shoot one, but handling them at SHOT they felt like toys and I was very underwhelmed. This was one gun I had/have high hopes for mostly due to the 300BLK ability. We shall see when more of them hit the streets.
 
Beretta is sponsoring the night event I am hosting in Austin in October and they said they would bring some for everyone to cut loose with. Not really helpful or relevant to what you are asking, but I am kind of curious about them as well and am looking forward to trying them there.
 
I am waiting for a report from Beretta forum on the accuracy. Also. There is a report on the loose rail on top. So, check it before you mount the scope. I will get one once the 300 blk barrel kit is out for sale.
