are they no longer selling them? I was just looking on their website and there's not a single A/R type rifle listed on their site anymore? I could see them bowing to pressure from anti-gun folks to stop selling them...is that what has happened? http://www.academy.com/shop/browse/shoot...geSize=120&

I fear this is only the beginning. The news outlets are reporting it was, "an AR-style assault rifle."

I don't see Academy caving into the AR hype fallout from the weekend shooting. At least I hope not.

If they do, y'all need to keep an eye open. They're likely to do what Walmart did last year and liquidate them around half price.

Academy is owned/run by a holding group that is heavily democrat.

is the sig mcx considered an ar? Is it mostly/all black, and/or "scary looking"? If so, then I'd say the answer is a definitive YES!

And it most definitely is an AR.
1) An MCX upper will run on a standard milspec lower (just beats up the buffer tube some).
2) same controls as AR
3) 5.56 accepts standard AR mags
Take-down on it is slightly different than an AR...but it's an AR.
But hey, I don't know what I'm talking about.
Carry on
