Is The Bushmaster ACR Is Still Cool In 2023?

It only took an entire year but I finally got the approval to take my registered SBR Bushmaster ACR home so I figured I'd male a video on it. I've always liked the ACR and now that Bushmaster says they're bringing it back sometime in 2022, I thought I'd talk about what I hope to see in the new one. (If & when it gets launched) What do y'all think about the ACR? Big thanks to Silencer Shop for sponsoring this video. I went through them not only for the suppressor showcased, but that actual ACR itself because they handle all things of this regulation. Big thanks to them!

I have one too nice rifle but heavy on the front and I live in California lol

I also am a fanboy of the ACR. I luckily have an FDE before they stopped making them. Lets hope they bring them back.

The jakl is gonna kill both the acr and the scar.

Check out the Crusader Arms Templar 5.56. Very ACR like, but with an AR-180 gas system

AMAZING 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Yes.

AMBI-DEXTROUS EJECTION as in the Beretta rifle: the price is steep as is and you can already change barrels… Throw more "fancy" at it!

I wish the return of the ACR was as epic as we thought it was going to be….. so far its a 450 bushmaster with the low price for 6k 😢

I remember 15 years ago that was the cod gun and it was getting a lot of talks and everyone thought it was going to replace the AR-15 platform.

Damn are you allowed to own these bad ass riffles in America? The ACR was my fav riffle in MW2 and MW3

I've been in love with the Masada since 2011 and fortunately was able to pick up an enhanced ACR in 2015 for a fantastic price. May I recommend a Geisselle trigger for your ACR pick up, I think they are quite nice. Nice rifle, stay safe!

1:37 you and me both my friend 😂

The ACR will always be cool

Excellent review and awesome ACR goodness. I have a coyote Wyndham Factory never fired ACR. I'm impressed by the Wilson Combat Custom AR's Hunter, Urban Super Sniper, etc,. In all the different calibers. Match grade barrel and trigger. True quality PORSCHE. Beautiful design.

Perhaps, the Grot is better

I've wanted an ACR since the first time I saw one. It's always been the one that got away.

This is just the most awesome rifle! Why isn’t it standard army issue everywhere!!

I definitely want to buy one of these rifles. Do you know what other calibers it can be converted into as of late 2022? There is mention of 5.56 of course, and 6.8 Rem SPC. Are they available to be converted into 7.62 x 39 or any other calibers yet? Thanks for the video, great rifle.

Thumbs up if you never even heard about this rifle until video games started showing it!

Have you messed with a Templar Precision ACR yet?

"Is The Bushmaster ACR Is Still Cool In 2022?" Should perhaps read "Is The Bushmaster ACR Still Cool In 2022?"

Haha that's be the most British sounding Steve Irwin I've ever heard

If they come back, they won't be under 2 grand. Look at the scar and mcx chrre t pricing. The acr really only needs a few things. Lighter! They are very heavy in stock form. More calibers like you mentioned. Ability to change grip would be nice.

I want it to shoot lasers!

If they do bring this back I'd hope that they make it a multi caliber platform again. I don't have any SBRs so will changing a caliber mean another TAX stamp? Cause I'd love to have the 5.56/.300 and any other caliber that fits the platform!

Supposedly they’ll have a 450bm version with a bi trigger. I’d love one of those

I just went to their site. $6000.00 !!! I dont like it that much.

Yes 👍

As an SBR it's cool, as a 16" nah and it won't hurt SCAR sales at all

LOVE the paint job! Can you run thru how you did it?

I’m so excited for this

There are several Geisele super ACR triggers on GB for $200 ish

1 good change would be aluminum lowers that allow for swapping of AR15 pistol grips

Remington Arms company along with quite a few others such as Bushmaster are all part of the Freedom Group, which is owned by Cerberus Capital Management. Since the two companies were bought and are now owned and managed by the same corporation, they have started working together, unbeknownst to most of the people in the gun world.

I want one in the OG 6.8

I hope they bring it back with a 1/7 chrome lined CHF barrel! Along with a 7.62×39 conversion.

I wish I could find an acr for sub 2 grand

The "multi-caliber" fad died before it even began. No multi-caliber rifle has survived introduction to the market. Not the ACR, not the Sig 556XI, the Sig MCX, nor any of those fancy quick barrel change AR15s. The fact of the matter is, multi-caliber is not practical. The caliber changes everything about the gun, recoil, gas pressure, weight, balance, point of impact, even the magazine most of the time. It was always a pipe dream. None of the guns that were designed on that fad succeeded. Even the MCX survives now as a single caliber gun. You buy it in the caliber it comes in and that's the way it stays, and even those have a whopping 2 options, 556 and 300 Black Out. The ACR's main promise was something it could never live up to. It was a fine gun, but it was marketed as something it couldn't be. No gun can. If you want another caliber, buy another gun.

Does the gas block set back further on a factory SBR barrel than the 16 inch barrel

How come the rail comes out to a different length and a couple of the pictures with my rail on my ACR the whole gas block is exposed

What I’d like to see ON a new ACR is my HANDS!

For it to be compatible with AR lowers

I freaking love my ACR!! I own a SCAR 16S, CZ Bren 1 & 2, and some high quality AR’s, but if SHTF tomorrow I would have my ACR in my hands protecting my family and myself.

I want it back the way it was. No new gimmicky AR-ification

I want a DMR version… 18" barrel chambered in .308 win.

What I would like to see is a price more in line with what it was SUPPOSED to be from the very beginning. Otherwise, I'll probably stick with getting the Hellion once prices settle.
Edit: There actually is a company that is developing a .308 ACR, although the name escapes me.

What’s the effective range of .450 ? 200 yrds I would say is m max? I’m just guessing

Keep the price similarly please!
