65 Receiver Set with Polymer mags from PF (HOPEFULLY)

Actually, as I understood the Saudi order, it was for both.

I hadn't heard that. Nor does it make much sense, all things considered.

If greater cartridge OAL was actually wanted, why require a mere 0.006" increase? That's not enough to really help either muzzle velocity or ballistic coefficient.

Plus, the loading contracted for by the Saudis not only has the standard (2.26") cartridge OAL, the bullet has a low BC and is loaded to SAAMI velocity.

If that is the real reason, I see even LESS need for a different receiver. PMAGs are cool, but they aren't the be all, end all of the AR world. I've had them break, too.

Hey, I'm sure nobody would force you to buy it if you don't want it, but why oppose it for those who would like to have the option?
