Saw this on my Facebook feed. Thought I'd share it here

So it’s their new sotic in the Habu chassis?

Price?

 

[Bandit31]

Probably $6k+. To me, it looks like a rebranded SOTIC in the Habu chassis. Maybe a few other little differences here and there but the rest looks the same.

Gents,
The SOTIC rifle actually started out as a full rifle built on the Habu chassis, called the Habu rifle. We decided to start with a more simple version first which became the SOTIC. NEMO approached us and we worked out a deal where they licensed this new rifle which is an evolution of the first Habu rifle.
It's got some neat stuff beyond our Habu which you can't really see from the pics. I'll leave it to NEMO to fully detail things out. I will add that it will be in the same price range as the heavy hitters like AI / Sako / Steyr, etc. but was designed to provide more to the shooter. If you have any questions just post them up and I'll answer them if possible. Thank you guys,
Justin

Does Nemo have a rep on SH that can add some info? Can you talk about the toolless barrel change process?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I can't say anything yet about it other than the barrels themselves are interchangeable with our SOTIC barrels and the system can be theoretically be used on the SOTIC. Thank you,
Justin

Maybe somebody here can figure out how this works. From Nemo website. Hopefully this works correctly, first time trying to post a picture.

 

[duramaxed]

One more. Looks like a nice piece.

Almost looks like some kind of ratcheting lock system?

 

[derek1ee]

If I have to guess, this is very similar to the bicycle seat tube's quick release lever (e.g. https://www.competitivecyclist.com/salsa-flip-lock-seat-clamp), inside is similar to a collet chuck used in mills holding the bits, presumably to evenly distribute the force. I think it's a great idea.

I'm assuming the lever forward of the mag well is part of the switch barrel system, like some sort of locking clamp?

Edit: I guess I should've read derek's post first lol

 

[wisey113]

Price?

Some of their dealers have them listed between 8400-8600.

 

[duramaxed]

Forgot this picture, after seeing this I think derek1ee might be on to it with the clamp.

 

[Massoud]

FYI guys the lower lever isn't directly related to the barrel change.
Justin

 

[Afkirby]

So I’m guessing the lower lever pops off the handguard?

Looks kinda like this guy from KRG's facebook:

 

[spife7980]

That looks like they just made the barrel nut a collet. Innovative.

 

[duramaxed]

Yeah I like it too. Sure makes it look easy. Hopefully works on the SOTIC as this chassis pushes it the price out of my range. I believe the SOTIC was $4500?
