"DT MDR". DTA Semi

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce the Desert Tech MDR!

I've been following it rather extensively. In fact I email Desertech(DTA) about it today. I actually sent them a long email a few month ago explaining there was a need of a Quality(non kel tec) .308 semi-auto bull pup, and they vaguely told me they would announce one at shot show this year which they obviously did. From what I've read it seems to be the best bullpup yet. It solves pretty much every issue I've ever had with bullpups, and most importantly it comes in .308. They also said the .308 version should be somewhere right around $2500 which is a steal in my opinion if the quality is anything like their SRS. Whenever they get back to me I'm going to ask them what the expected accuracy is planned for, and I will report back then, but all in all it looks extremely promising.
 
Just sucks that we have to wait until mid-2015 to get it.
I agree but it's still better than "our 1-8x will be shipping in Q2" for three years straight! Bastards tempting us a year out... :D

I'm going to watch this one closely but I need to see more before I'm dropping a deposit down on it. To have something shooting heavies, in the same weight league as a SCAR and potentially cheaper at that, and with flexible caliber options to boot, I'm very interested but there are too many "what ifs" for me right now. Reliability, portability and accuracy will be the top priorities for me, with the toss up between this and a SCAR as my next (and probably only when I get done ditching the two AR pigs I have) large frame semi auto system.
