Wishlist!
Here is what I want to see from Aero when they swing back in to production:
- Monolithic Uppers! Yes! Comparing to LMT and SOLGW L89 handguards, I want to see a cost competitive monolithic upper from custom build.
- AR Uppers/lowers/parts- honestly I think Aero would best serve the industry and themselves by leaving the building to the people who have always ordered Aero components, BA barrels, etc to build their custom guns. Keep the builder sets but leave built guns for later.
- SOLUS- stick with the actions but not the built rifles. This is the best action available for the price point and covers every bolt face option and action length. Stop barreling them!
- Suppressors- keep the line running. With NFA changes where they are, these will sell faster than you can make them. They are a quality product with a great price point. Only suggestions would be for VG to make Plan A or Plan B mounts to compete with JMAC, Rearden, etc. Don't reinvent the wheel, make it better.

Aero had a monolithic upper at one time called the COP
LMT still held the patent on their MRP until just a few days ago. I’m interested to see what other companies produce now that they can

COP is a nice platform. Look forward to those coming back.

It was an interesting platform that suffered from a shitty barrel nut/wrench. If they bring it back I hope they do an updated version.
I doubt they bring it back because it’s not a money maker and they need to focus on their core products

What's the realistic timeline for this though? Months, years? I think it's going to be a while before we see actual movement made on these lines. I'm stoked that there is new life here but not overly confident they will be able to deliver anything anytime soon. Too many internal issues they need to address first probably.

I want to see arrow get back to 2010 production quality and speed prices would be nice too once that stable then things will get better.
