Paging the cherubs and seraphim

[joemerchant24]

After being teased by you, Senor Bane, (and Jim Shepard and Steve@FirearmsBlog) what hath your secret squirrel insiders have to say about the Remmy ACR for we the little people?

I sit in fear that the "game changer" Jim alluded to this morning but is embargoed until 11/17 is the ACR. I have the resources but a very narrow window in which to overpay for an ACR. I'm wondering if I should instead pull the trigger (no pun intended) on another overpriced want or will the ACR be introduced sooner?

Help me, Michael Bane-Kenobi, you (and your contacts) are my only hope.
