Nope. I haven't seen one in a store, if I had you would be seeing pics of me holding it now. I want one of these badly.

I believe I understood that the first production run was only about 50. Hopefully they'll be filtering down soon, but the going rate on gunbroker was around 3K. A little steep for me.

3K !! You gotta be kidding ??

Yeah, always some nut with more money than sense who just has to be first. I believe the expected retail is supposed to be around $1500. When it gets in that neighborhood I'll take a look.

Their website said suggested retail around $1800 last I looked. Thats still a bit high. I like the bullpulp design, adds length to the barrel without overall length and I also like the front ejection, but if I'm going to pay that much, I'll go with a AR-10

I understand that KelTec is tweaking the rifle before full release. I sent them a message suggesting that they tweak it to use HK G3 mags rather than FAL mags ($1-5.00 each vs $25-35.00) and I got a reply indicating no such plans. Other than that, I can offer no additional information.
