ACR fragility

News about this gun folks. The ACR has been reported to have several problems with the gas system. The piston seems to be very prone to breakdowns. The quality is also really lousy and the plastic cracks easily. It looks like Remington's quality control no longer exists. Hughjefender

Sounds more like a design flaw than bad QC.--FIVETWOSEVEN 20:58, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

That, and the fact that it's being recalled for randomly emptying the mag, leads me to believe that this is only the first of many problems. -SasquatchJim

Yeah, I'll try to ask my friend about the source of his info. He gets a lot of info from Highroad, Calguns, Arf-Com, and even K. I get skeptical about his stuff sometimes. Hughjefender.

Title

Shouldn't this page be called Magpul Masada since that is the base gun? Like with the lost of variants on the M1911 page. Now this is like calling M249 the FN Minimi page... - bozitojugg3rn4ut 04:55, 9 August 2011 (CDT)

other way round, Minimi was the base LMG, but anyway, most of the time its the name that is most commonly used/known by thats given to a page, in this case its kinda iffy seeing theres been 3 producers scarecrow 09:17, 15 January 2012 (CST)

Splitting sections

Shouldn't we be putting the confirmed Remington ACRs in their own section? The Wierd It 14:45, 15 January 2012 (CST)

YES!
Always wanted to know what are the differences between the two because it seems like the same weapons with different company name... --RaNgeR 06:23, 26 June 2012 (CDT)

Really the only difference between the two is that Bushmaster is the civilian version - semi and safe only. Remington is the mil version with select fire. Unless you happen to catch a very high quality screencap that you can definitely ID the rifle with, you aren't going to tell the two apart. --DeltaOne 13:54, 26 June 2012 (CDT)

Ah, okay, thanks. --RaNgeR 14:12, 26 June 2012 (CDT)

Carbine

In what context is the weapon considered as a carbine rather than a standard assault rifle? Barrel length? Variant (Bushmaster/Remington)? Or is it always a carbine? --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 14:58, 25 July 2016 (EDT)
