I held a Jack carbine in my hands today. The trigger I did not like, but better than usual, so another $230 is needed from Giessle, the float tube is very stiff compared to say a 15 inch DD LW keymod type tube, its got a light and a chrome lined barrel all for the low low price of $2395.00! I liked it for $1500 but that is as much as I liked it. The SR15 e3 mod2 is about the same money and this is better than a Colt 6940 how, the paint job, light?
A LOT of that $2400 price is paying for the name. I didn't mean to suggest people buy THAT rifle in particular because I sure wouldn't, but something like that is what I'd sure build.
I'd say that a Jack-like AR would be lighter and smoother shooting than a 6940, and I'd personal prefer to not have a quad rail-but that's just me.
