I sure hope that you are right and the AI Rep at MHSA is innocently wrong. I doubt AI even knows exactly when it will be released. I've been waiting many years for this rifle to be produced. Another 6 months won't hurt me much. Well worth the wait. I will say that Jordan originally told me "last quarter of 2017" and when we spoke this past week he said "this summer at best" That sounds promising.
If anyone gets their hands on one of these, post pictures please. Thinking of selling all of my rifles and downsizing to one of these with a few barrels
