Well, I see Ruger has their own AR-15 variant out now...for the low, low price of $2,000.  Who's next?  Benelli?  Stoeger?  Uberti?

Well at least theirs is a little different - piston system, adjustable gas regulation (like an FAL), etc.

If you cant beat em; may as well join em! Looks like a nice toy but pricey for sure.

I sold a mini for an AR upper. Good choice too, no comparison.

These sell on gunbroker for less than $1400.  If you consider all the upgrades and little goodies that come with it, it's actually a very fair deal.

These rifles are having some issues though with buffer tube wear and other marks on the inside of the upper reciever.  It's talked about alot on ar15.com and many people expect a recal at some point.

If it worked like it's supposed to, it'd be an outstanding deal.
