Beans spilled on new Taurus AR ???
« on: November 05, 2009, 06:10:38 PM »
In the December 2009 edition of Guns & Ammo Craig Boddington writes an article about the Taurus Judge. On page 16 he writes:
Quote
Over the years, Taurus has offered a wide variety of good guns here in the US, some retro, some innovative (wait until you see the ne piston-driven AR). The Judge definitely falls into the latter category.

Well, they hit the market with a budget loaded 1911..........might as well bring an AR too....

Hell, it might even be affordable to some of us broke SOB's.    ;D

Yet if they were making another AK clone you'd be crapping you pants right now. ;D

Nah, they pretty much perfected the AK 50 years ago.  I'm REALLY waiting to see what get's the nod to replace the AR though!  We can only hope it's not chosen for the politcal or financial gains of some jerk in an office somewhere (Mcnamara :P).

This is a case where you can hope in one hand and crap in the other and see which one gets the kick back.  >:(

WHY?  The AR platform is being phased out and the new weapons will most likely be made in GA at the H&K plant where the M8 rifle was built and tested to death.  Truth is, the guts may be closer to an AK than the AR ( thank God ) BUT we have to play politics so take a ticket and sit down. This is going to be a long wait.

Frankly, if this is true, its great news. Taurus is like the budget version of Ruger. Ruger takes old designs and makes them stronger. Taurus just makes them cheaper, but most of them work pretty darn well for the money. If they come out with a $500-$650 AR it will be a good service.

They're a great place to buy from to.  Reliable, and quick ship.
