Were you talking about somewhere other than this form, just curious? I didn't see anyone here say anything about handling one or any mention of Cabela's. It looks like a good idea but I'm a lefty so unless they made a reversed version it would do me know good.
Sorry, I posted the Cabela's comment in the wrong thread -

I don't know about a lefty version, but Sgt. Cabral is a hell of an armorer; I'll bet if you contacted him through his website he might have a solution for you.

I read the Blue Press write up, it sounds like the real deal. I'd be interested in a lefty version but would have to sell a couple things to fund it.

$2000-2500 for a major caliber battle rifle that handles on par with an M4, at a similar pricepoint as any piston AR or nextgen 556 MBR???

It is a solution, if true. 

I had been waiting for someone to make an ergonomic FAL, but this may work too.

Is the display stand included for that price?

I swear sometimes I sympathize with Bane. Maybe its just me, but after playing with P90S's, AR platforms and everyone favorite FAL I still snap in with my synthetic stocked M1A. Everyone complains the ergo's are from a bygone era and I will be the last to argue a speed advantage but at the end of the day I shoot darned well with an old tired stock design.
