YESSS! Even if the gun that I voted for in the Fan Choice didn't win that contest, now I know that it will be produced! I am terrifically happy and my evening has been made! And what a beautiful design! Awesome job, Will and BA... You never cease to amaze me! :D

Ah, I see sig WWII badger has a new gun of choice... ;) Here's a pic of the BAR with Pvt. RoA:  As I said on my Flickr, this is possibly my favorite from this batch. I am a BAR freak, and this definitely satisfies my craving. Finally, rifle squads will have fire support! =D

I am in love with this wonderful gun! This gun is what any WWII MOC needs! I will be drooling over this prototype until it's hopefully mass produced, than I can drool over the real thing!

Awesome. This is almost perfect already, or as close to it as possible. :P I was going to complain about the magazine, as I couldn't tell if it was square or not in his pictures, but fortunately Ranger of Awesomeness had a picture that was clearer. That was my only nitpick. I'm not excited about this one as much as the PPSh, but I'll still buy multiples when it comes out.

Well done Will, it's as beautiful as all the other prototypes and weapons you make. One thing though, how well does the hand hold on the grip?

I find this to be a handsome weapon with great potential in the hands of a lego genius, cough, "RoA", cough and wish to see the hopefull post someday that this will reach mass production or be a forum exclusive or something like that.

This has to be my new all time favorite BrickArms weapon! I can't wait to see if it hits mass production.

This gun looks great, but it's another one of those weapons that cannot be held in a firing pose without looking goofy. :'( Also, isn't it a little long though? It looks that way! And what's the other barrel right underneath the other barrel? What's its purpose in real life?

While a good sculpt, I think Will could do better, honestly. I think the over all length is too short compared to the size of the Garand and Lee Enfield, and the barrel's length looks disportionate to the size of the reciever and stock. I also think the stock is a bit too thick, it could use a bit of thinning. I also would have liked personally if Will had made the foregrip square, much like the slide of the Colt M1911 pistol, it would have been more accurate and still grippable.

This is one of my favorite guns ever! WAY TO GO! Though if a may sugest, maybe Will could make the end of the barrel grip able to use with a bipod. Great Job Will!

Ohhhh wow! This is my favorite weapon to be released in Brickfest! I can see a dozen "Saving Private Ryan" vigs coming to mind. Well, the Bazooka might be needed too. :P If you're holding a beautiful weapon that made the shift to Prototype with ease, and still looks as good if not better than it did as a real weapon, than you know that you have Brickarms in your hand! A wonderful job Mr. Chapman Sir! *Doffs cap*

After looking at the pictures a tad bit more, I was wondering something. Is this masterpiece grippable anywhere else besides the grip,and foregrip?

I'd say on the stock and maybe on the top of the gun.

To me, the handle looks a bit bulky. Also, the barrel length looks a bit too short. But afterall, this is only a prototype, so further changes can be made.
But it is also a cool looking weapon.
Please let it come into production!

It's nice that we have a WW2 heavy machine gun. This BAR fits the bill quite nicely!
