If you honestly think the NEA's will make it out the door at that price point through the gestapo's lab, I have an oceanview property in Alberta to sell you. ;D

On FB today NEA is talking like its a done thing and they're just building up stock prior to dropping the ball within the next month.

...I mean like the New Years ball..not fumbling a ball..

I'm not really understanding the continuation of manufactured suspense when it's been spoiled already...
 
were talking about deer hunting with it on facebook today as well
 
With the shooting in Quebec today....the NR status of this firearm is less likely to happen anytime soon.
 
Well, I've got my vasectomy booked for march 16.
I think an nea 102 would be just the thing to commemorate the occasion, and compensate for my new lack of certain ability.
I'm hoping this once in a lifetime event will be enough to sway the budget committee (wife) in favour of the last hunting rifle I'll ever need. (Until the next one, I guess)
It's probably the best argument I've ever had for a new gun, but it's also more money than I've ever spent on a gun.
I hope it works.

I can hear the conversation on this one now, "Honey...since I'll be shooting blanks, I need a new rifle that will do my shooting for me!"
Seems like as logical of a reason as any other.

Love it! Hahaha. It's so crazy it just might work!!
 
I messaged NEA on FB they said the calibers will be .308, 243, and 260. There is probably going to be a run on cheap 308 ammo as soon as these come out.. I would buy it now. ;)
 
I promised to never buy a 308 because I'm so invested in 30.06 platforms.

May actually consider a 243 because I have no 6mm calibres and I've heard nothing but good things.

I'm surprised they wouldn't go with 6.5. Creedmore likely too long, but Grendel would work.
 
I'd expect 7mm-08 over 260. Oh well.

I think I'd probably go for the 243 route myself.
 
. 308 for me. I've got a stash.

6.5Creedmoor is based off the .308 case. Ditto .260Rem. 6.5Grendel is kinda sorta based off the 7.62x39 (long convoluted story. Some say 6.5PPC, others say 6PPC, others still say .220 Russian. All based off the x39 though.)

I'm not too sure the Creedmoor would reliably feed, given the shorter case and sharper shoulders for the OAL. I think .260 is going to have the edge here.
 
Seeing as the NEA 102 will NOT be a long range gun for me, the 308 win. will be my pick. :)

For varmints 110 V-max...for moose 180 SST and a lot of choices in between :) :)
 
It's going to have to be a very accurate platform to start with for the creedmoor to make sense IMO. But the hordes of people in the states with creedmoor AR10's show that it will reliably feed.
 
My delivery from tradex came today :)

Two substantial wooden crates :)

From Austria, with love :)

Now I need a scope :)

A mount :)

A gun :D
 
I bought a couple crates of hirtenberger also. For me its only .10 cents a round more than the norinco surplus with reloadable brass. Totally worth it.
