I know that I have posted several videos with this firearm already, but this is probably the shortest video with the most information that I have found.
A couple of takeaways from this video.
1. It's going to happen. This one is an early concept, but this will happen.
2. They are talking to Franklin Armory about getting this thing a binary trigger.
When you can buy any number of AR15s for under five hundred bucks, the high-end manufacturers need to drop their prices or go out of business. That being said, this looks like a nice budget option.

The XM177E2 Commando Returns. This Retro Classic Carbine is built to the Original Colt Model 629 specifications from the 1960s. The 11.5" Barrel has an extended flash hider designed to replicate the original moderator that was so iconic for this model. We've cut no corners, reproducing the original Vinyl-Acetate coated Aluminum Buttstock and reproducing the US Property Marked rollmarks. This is a true collectible that's as comfortable on the range as it will be in an enthusiast's display.
The PTR63 is going to be a hit. Looks like it can be made to look like a real G41 clone with a bit of work. I missed the first batch they released. Will order one as soon as they are avail. Creating a lot of buzz in the HK world. Someone needs to make a good G41 handguard replica.
The Zenith I think will be a flop. Answers questions no one asked.
Now if MKE/Century would just bring in their HK33K/HK53 pistols... Rumors but nothing at Shot Show AFAIK.
