Default Nea 102

Anyone see this new gun?

Based on the AR10, non restricted status and comes in .308 Winchester for now. Plans for a 6.5 Creedmore and a 260 Rem are coming.

$1700, so much cheaper than an XCR.

Good lord I want one.
Planned to get one when they first started teasing it at the start of the year.
My tax bill made it just a dream.
I'm sure the gov will spend my nea 102 money wisely.

I'm going to wait for accuracy and reliability reports. Might buy one in 6.5 creedmore as a deer gun.

Have to wait until they make it part of their IOP program. Will be a fun rifle to bring hunting.

If this gun can hold 1" groups with quality ammo or handloads I would be interested.

Haven't they been building it for years? Available in New Zealand for example....

Agreed, people's experience with NEA makes me want to wait and see.

So NEA is now Black Creek Laboratory or BCL. Apparently these rifles will bear BCL on them and not NEA.

Also new pics were posted today. i dont like the muzzle break but that can be changed easily.

Guys on CGN have them. Results are ok. Lots of guys changing out the trigger right away.

Accuracy seems to be 2 MOA with factory handloads. I'm sure some guys will get it down to 1-1.5.
